What load have you preferred in your 260 Predator?

Danno;

My experience with .22-250 is that they can be very accurate if the rate of fire is kept relatively slow. Barrel heating does not allow the chambering to sustain a Match firing cadence. Rapid fire kills accuracy in both the short and long runs.

My Ruger V/T liked 36.0gr Varget with the 50gr V-Max, and 34.0gr IMR-4064 with the 52gr Matchking. The .22-250 takes over from my .223 beyond 250yd, and I throw in the towel beyond 400yd. I can see 'em, and I can hit 'em; but wind makes the shots a bit more iffy than I like.

My Savage 11VT .223 (a Dick's Sporting Good exclusive) likes 75gr HDY HPBT Match with 23.7gr Varget. and 26.0gr Varget with HDY 50gr V-Max.
