260 accuracy loads in 1885?

Any good accuracy loads out there for the 1885 in 260? Thanks.

47.8gr H4831 behind the 129gr Hornady Interlock, and 50gr H4831 behind the 120gr Matchking are the two most accurate loads in my Low Wall.

Lord, please grant me the strength to change the things I can, the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, and the wisdom to know the difference.

100gr. b-tip w/ 40.0 gr. of 4064 has been most accurate in mine thus far.

Has anyone tried the 160gr. Hornady just for fun?

IIRC, the specs browning put out were a 10 twist? At fastest 9, but I DO believe it was a 10 which does not do best with heavy bullets.

Too bad they did not make them in 8 twist.
