    Muzzle brake affecting shooting position?

    As Sterling said shoot a .260 or 6.5 Creedmore and you will be much better off. I can use my .260 drop data for my .300 to some extent. I have out to 850. My first round hits were close enough to not worry with it much. The recoil of a 260 or 6.5 Creed is very little w/o a brake, so with a...

    Can anyone provide me some reloading data for 260 Remington over the next hour?

    I ended up shooting IMR4350 behind 123 SMK's or preferably 123 Scenars. Very good velocitis and accuracy. I have been experimenting with Hodgdon SuperF and it is showing to be a very good powder as well. My rifle just does not like the 140 class bullets. They shoot ok, but not outstanding. The...

    Federal 300 WM brass, 5 loadings, good or bad...

    I just discarded some (200) WW brass for a 300 WM that I had ten firings on. Not all of it was bad, primer pocktes were getting loose. I try to keep everything at the same number of firings and anneal every three firings, so when some went south I canned it all and started over. It took two...

    Adventures with H100V in .260 Remington Improved

    I run the H100V in my straight .260 and my .300WM. I have not had temp. problems and I run the load .3 off max at 90-95 degrees down to 20 plus. I have had very little issue with it. It is a high intensity powder, so you may want to watch for fire cracking if you run hot loads. My 123 AMAX's are...

    IMR 4350 vs. H 4350

    I shoot IMR4350 with 190's in my 300. It shoots better than anything I have tried execept H100V. Velocities are about the same with the H100V a bit more accurate, but both do well out to 1000.

    Range Report Nosler Custom Competition for Hunting

    I have a buddy that shoots the Nosler CC 168 to hunt with. It has done the job on everything he has shot, but little exits and little blood. However, I shoot the AMAX and there is no comparison. Tennis ball exits or DRT's.

    Hodgdon Superformance Powder

    I read Southpaws thread a week ago and was intrigued. I have an 8# keg of SF so off I went. I ran the same testes he did, but with Lapua brass, which is thicker. The rifle is a .260. Initial testing shows great promise. I was going to run a full velocity test this week and add to Southpaws post...

    Range Report Truing Ballistics question....

    wnroscoe is right on here. You will also need to true the elevation turret to the program. That is at the mid-ranges roscoe is referring to. I have observed data changes as the weather changed while I was actively shooting. The 4500nv is better for this as it updates as the changes occur.
