    260 & Barnes 130 TSX

    Any load data for loading 130gn tsx with ADI 2209 for 260rem, looking for accuracy more than velocity.

    Go into hodgdons or ADI wbsite for load data. H4350 is the same as 2209 rebranded...

    If you seat the barnes real close to lands, pressures tend to run high a fair bit quicker than using plain ol cup n core bullets....

    From my research they like a .05" jump and a decent powder load.
    I followed that advice in my 223 and the last 3 shot 3 different powder loads shot .8 .7 and .65" inches at 100m - the group reducing in size as I went up in powder charge.

    Jump them and run them hard.

    Got up to 41 gr of 2209 and started showing signs of pressure, went to 41.5 and started getting sticky bolt. Don't know how others get on

    Did you measure the distance to lands?

    No didn't measure. Not sure how to go about it. Have got a hornady comparator.
