.260 AI Loads?

[Redhouse]

I've found a few online, just wondering what your experiences are.

Looking to shoot Berger 140 VLD's in the 2900 *range*, from 27" 8.5 twist barrel. I have on hand IMR4831, H4831SC, RL19, RL22, RL25. Well, and Varget BLC2 & Benchmark, but not going there.

IMR & H 4831 are good powders for the 260 AI, as are RL 19, 22. I believe RL 25 is a bit slow for this little case. In my own 260AI, I use Vihtavuori N560 or Norma MRP. Regards, Eagleye.

Try the following : Hybrid 100V (start @ around 40.5gr work up to 43grs), Supreme 780 (start @ 43.5gr), as well as H1000 (start @ 50grs).

With your barrel length R-19 and H4931 should get you the speeds you are looking for. I get there using H4350, but my barrel is only 24".
