8208 xbr for .260

Re: 8208 xbr for .260

What bullet do you plan to run? This powder would only be decent for the really light bullets, and still wouldn't be the best choice. If you planto run anything over 120 grains, I wouldn't use this powder. It's too fast burning.

+1 to what Chad said.

P.S. Hodgdons site has info on the 260 in this cal. Drop by there and look for yourself. Prepare to be underwhelmed. Very nice powder, just not really for the 260, unless you do not mind Loading Down a fair bit.
