Who has load info for 140NP's using H4350 in a 260rem.

Hodgdon's site lists 42gr max. But I know you can push 2750-2800..

Thanks
 
Re: 140's In 260rem

Have pushed it upto 42 gr of H4350 in my Rem 700 CLD SF Limited w/ 26" barrel. Several cases showed ejector marks with OAL at 2.825". Vel hit 2733 fps with 1.66" groups. I gave up on this powder/bullet combo because for this rifle 1.66" group was terrible. I have no less than 15 different powder/bullet combo's that went 1 MOA and better.

For the 140 NP I settled on 50.3 gr of H1000 for 2775 fps and sub MOA 3-shot groups.
