260 Accuracy potential?
Put a new barrel from ER Shaw on a Model 70 Short Action...
24 inch, heavy magnum contour...one in 8 twist...
nonstandard "book" load... but plenty enough for blacktail at 200 yds...
3 shots at 50 yds...but not bad considering it being a brand new ER Shaw barrel...not 'broken in' yet... within the first 10 shots down the new barrel...
load? 33 grains of H322, CCI Large Rifle Primer... bullet: 85 grain Sierra HP...
