vines123 GRAIN A-MAX 6.5 HORNADY
just shot my first rounds with the 123 A-MAX with my .260 rem. RUGER M77 S.S. So far they don't shoot as well as does my 120 sierra matchking 120s. and my 120 nosler bil.tip. loaded these with H4350 & H414 WLR PRIMER.. anyone shot this in a 260 rem. yet..?

TX NimrodYou might try using a faster powder like Varget or Benchmark. Velocity may be down a tad but my M700 VLS likes Varget better than H414 with 120-129 grain bullets. W760 (same as H414) works extremely well with heavier bullets in my rifle, but all rifles are different.

larrysLook on the Hodgdon loads site. My 260 likes IMR4064 best, although I can't remember the load right now.
