[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 2300051, member: 11011"] I like the 7mm-08's too , I have 3 of them . I bought a 260 for my grandson . it is a very nice shooting rifle . give the 260 a try , I think you'll be happy . I have a bunch of pics of load work up targets for this rifle . it seems to shoot everything pretty good . awhile back I messed with 168 Berger VLD's in my one 7mm-08 . I couldn't get velocity and accuracy to come together . I could get one or the other , but not both . I went to the 140 Berger VLD's and have been happy with them . I only use this rifle for groundhogs . I dug back through some pics of when I was playing around . I shot this target at 400 yards . I couldn't see the bullet holes so I walked out to see where I was hitting . I went back , shot 2 more . couldn't put the other two in the group . I should have stopped at 3 . LOL it's still moa . [ATTACH]301253[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]301254[/ATTACH] here is a 200 yard target shooting the 140's the three dots are from this rifle . the load on the right is 49.0 grains of RL17 , at 3080 FPS [ATTACH]301255[/ATTACH] same 140 Berger load at 1000 . I was with a couple guys at a 1000 yard range , just us shooting . we only had a few targets , so a couple of us would shoot the same target , the first guy shot , we would tape his holes and the second guy would shoot . I shot first on this target . if I remember right I didn't shoot any sighters , I used the dope from my rangefinder . I shot a decent group , but it was high . [ATTACH]301256[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
