What works in someone else's 11 lightweight hunter may not work well in yours. Every rifle is a rule unto itself. It's pretty darned hard to avoid having to do load workup if your interest is in finding the best load for YOUR rifle.
That being said, you can get some good starting points by having a look at the .260 loads thread above. You might be able to see some common trends of what components work well together and then start at the start, using those components.

cool little rifle. Try 42.5 grain IMR 4350 and 120 grain Sierra Prohunters. That load is below max and should be a safe place to start.
