Re: gap ar10 260 loads with varget
Agree with 427Cobra, get some H4350. Varget is a bit too fast for the 260. I also like 4831SC in the 260 as well.
Here are some Quickload numbers using the Lapua 139gr Scenar, 260 Rem case, OAL 2.800", 20" barrel.
Powder Fill% Grains fps Burn% Max PSI
H4350 96.7 40.7 2607 98.4 52667
H4831SC 102.7 43.9 2567 92.7 52667

With the 139/142's, try H4831 in RP Hulls @ mag length. 44 to 45.5 grains is the sweet spot depending on throat length. H4350 is another great powder for the .260
