I don't have years of experience with the 260 yet but I have put just around 200 bullets through my new barrel. It seems to shoot everything well enough and even the worst isn't that bad. But I have settled on I4350 with bullets weighing from120 to 140 grains. The 120 gr. Ballistic Tips and Sierra Prohunters are more accurate than I would have expected making groups of around half an inch regularly. The 140 grain Sierra Gameking does the same thing. The 130 gr. ELDM in this rifle is very picky about seating depth, powder charge weight and how the barrel is bedded. Right now for my purposes the "best" combo is a near max load of I4350 and the 120 gr. Ballistic Tip for hunting and my next target load will be worked on using the same powder and the 140 gr. Barnes Match Burner. Hope it plays well.
