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...
