[QUOTE="Ultra25-06, post: 777107, member: 16917"] i built a savage 260 around 4-5 yrs ago old sav action (flat rear), shilen 26" barrel, aluminum full length bed fiberglass stock, custom trigger, 20 moa rail. my go to gun/favorite. one shot hits, to this day still sub moa to 1000yds. this is what i use to show friends interested in shooting "long range" when they make that first shot hit at say 600yds they look back and say how did I do that? most of them tell me they have never shot past 150yds. Anyway. H4831sc, 142smk, rem 9 1/2 have been my best loads with es below 10, all my testing consisted of 10 shot groups (2737fps). I still try other combos but h4831sc and rem brass ( i know) rem 9 1/2 primers. I am over 1000rds on this barrel now. H4831sc charge im using is just under 46gr. Tried light bullets in mine it would lock my bolt so sticking with 142smk. [/QUOTE]
