    .260 Loads

    Sako 85. 20". Lapua brass, federal 215 and 140 Amax.
    12-15mm. Has fired 5shots into 11mm before. . . . All precautions taken. Obviously.

    As a side note and of some interest was the successful use of Superformance Powder in the .260Rem. Others were hitting pressure early with 2209 while velocity were too low.

    Yes I concur with Danny, Superformance gave better velocity than 2209.

    I'm about to run some more loads for the 260 this weekend using the ELD-X and Superformance. Previously VLD's gave good results.
