    Hunting & Fishing Breaking in the Gradous .260

    Re: Breaking in the Gradous .260 How are you getting 3000fps from that load combo? I have a hard time breaking that speed with a 25.6" barreled 6.5x284 and a max load of RL17 with the same bullets. I would love to chronograph that one. You may have a really "fast" barrel their.
