inot expecting exact load measurements, but anyone got any good combos that work in there .260? so far i've used h4350, h4831 and imr4831. all are pretty even in the accuracy dept., but h4350 shows the best velocity. using speer 120gr. hotocors and nosler 120gr. bts i can get 3000fps with my 26" barrel, but i've had to back off the listed max load because i'm getting cratered primers. thinking about trying h414 and RL19 next. any info?
 
My Kimber 260 like H4831sc or R19 with the 125-140gr bullets and does best with H4350 and the lighter ones. I`d try R19 next if you are looking for a bit more velocity with accuracy. Rembember though 50 extra fps won`t mean a thing to a animal but a little more accuracy is always nice to have on your part. I stay with the most accurate and fore go 100 fps or less in my reloads if needed.
 
I have a kick butt load for antelope and deer. I launched 100 gr Partitions at 3300 fps. Basically a 25-06. Check the latest Nosler manual for load, or pm me. I am at work now so I do not have access.
