    Question for 260 Rem Shooters/Reloaders

    I built a 260 using a Stevens 200 short action that is a center feed. I put a Mcgowen 26" barrel with a 8" twist and can shoot the 140 bergers at 2.935 COAL and they fit in the magazine no problem at all. It is a build for the not so rich and shoots very well for me. I shoot rock chucks all day...

    Anyone reloading Barnes 85 Gr TSX bullets in .243 win

    I load the tsx in a 243 using 45 grains of RL19. It is in a stevens model 200. Bullets touch at 100 and it has proven itself on deer. 3 shots in 3 years all went about 18 inches, straight down! I think speed is around 3250 or so. It shoots so good and it is my daughters rifle that speed doesn't...

    .308 loads for 1:12 twist 26" bbl

    Least expensive bullet I have found would be the 168 grain Nosler custom competition. If you buy them by the 1000 they are 20 cents each from Powder Valley. My cousin shoots them in the same spec barrel as yours with 49 grains of W760 and they are sub half minute. Good luck with your load workup.

    Powder selection help for .260 Remington 140 GN

    I am surprised that only one person mentioned the powder that was made for the 260. H4831SC is in my opinion the best powder for the 260. It is the one I use with great success. In fact it has a load on the bottle for the 260. I can't say for sure if H4350 does as it has been a while since I...

    presses for 338 lapua mag?

    Hello, I load both those cartridges and a lot more using the Rock Chucker press from RCBS. It works very well and can handle the Lapua just fine. The dies are the same a any other dies and I got mine from Sportsman's for $29.99. Tell him to try 89-91 grains of H1000 with the 300 SMK and CCI 250...

    .338 LM & Retumbo sweet spot?

    Hey there, I have a savage 111 LRH in 338LM with a 26" barrel and the load I have settled on is 91 grains of retumbo under a 300 grain berger seated to 3.775. It will fit in the mag and shoots clover leaf size groups at 100. On a 10 inch gong it will put 5 shots under 5 inches at 1000 yards...

    WTK powder and component selection for single load for multiple rifles

    I agree with P7id10t, I think W760 is fairly easy to find and will work in all those calibers. I load it in 2 different 30-06 rifles and have excellent accuracy. It is the same as H414 if you can find that powder they are identical. I use CCI 250 primers in everything from 22-250 to 33 Lapua...

    Best bullet puller ever

    Fair enough. But before you post something like "want to guess why?" and put skepticism in people's heads why don't you ask people that have used them. The OP put this up because they obviously like it and want to share it with people. It is because it works very well and does not harm the...

    Best bullet puller ever

    Why don't you enlighten us! Are you inferring that the bullet is damaged? I assure you that this puller does not damage bullets in any way, shape, or form. See the other video on there and you will know. This new puller is pretty cool and works very well. It is faster and easier than anything...

    Best bullet puller ever

    Did you get one of the Grip n pull's? How do you like it? I think it is the coolest thing to come around for a while. People on here like to use what they have but if they would take the time to check it out they would love it too I'm sure. The kinetic pullers are a pain in the ass and hurt the...

    260 130 VLD Troubles

    I have a lot of experience with the 260 and I say try the H4831sc. I shoot it with a 140 berger and 45.2 grains powder with CCI 250 primers. Shooting the 130 try 45-47 grains H4831sc about .010 off the lands and you should be in business. My 260 will shoot 5 shots in the same hole with the 140...
