    sanity check on 260rem/120amax

    Reloading manuals are very "safety" oriented. Their testing they do with their rifle means nothing really. Your rifle is totally different.. Probably each aspect is the testing with their test and with your reloading test is different.. Sooo I would not watch published velocities a whole...

    260 Rem - Lapua versus Remington Brass

    I use lapua across the board right now... it last long imo... i had over 25 reloads on my last batch of 65 grendel and prolly coulda got more. Life of brass is what you pay for. Nosler is suppose to be real good too.
