Re: .260 ammo?
Win 7mm-08 Brass ran through a 260 full length die.
H4350 powder
Get it singing 2800+fps
Light it with a 210M or a BR2

Re: .260 ammo?
Well, you just came up with a particularly good reason to get that handloading capability up and running. H4350 (around 44gr), 142SMK's, and a good match primer (I suggest CCI BR-2's) should get your rifle purrin'.

Blackhills has loaded the 139 scenar in the past. Shoots great. The only problem is it is remington Brass. If that matters to you.

Isn't that supply all used up? or is it still available?
