[QUOTE="bretterath, post: 1238328, member: 32377"] I had a 260 built for my wife. Semi custom, bought a tikka and had gun smith pull barrel and had him install 6.5 benchmark installed tikka contour and had bolt fluted and different bolt knob installed. Running a mark 4 on top. I loaded some 130 Bergers with different loads with 10 thousand off lands and never shot good. So took best group and did different seating depths and with 130 Bergers seated 40 thousands off the lands I shot a 1/4" group. My load was H4350 43.5 grains shooting 2740. This has a 24" benchmark barrel and thought that I should be getting more velocity than that with a 130. Are the 130 going to be sufficient for deer out to 600 yards? I was gonna use 140 vlds but wanted more velocity. I was also thinking of the 143 eld-x bullets but was looking for fps around 2850. What are your thoughts?
