I have found the 95 grain VMax to be a little particular about the barrel throat length and condition, in that a load that shoots lights-out in 1 rifle, won't shoot very good groups in another rifle, same make/model, but with a slightly rough/worn throat. It also seems to shoot better in my rifles at maximum or close to maximum load then it does at maximum minus 5%.
I've had good luck with a heavy load of H4895 and my 24" 260 is clocking 3360 FPS, +/- 15 FPS, using reformed 243 Winchester/Olin brass. For some reason it has generally been easier for me to find the "sweet spot" for the 100 grain BT then for the 95 grain VMax, but it shoots lights-out if you find the right combination of components and seating depth for your particular rifle.
