    Edit: So this only takes you to the parent page, but it's simple to pick the bullet weight, cartridge and the 780 powder. This info is for a Nosler Accubond 130 - you would likely be best to use Sierra's recommendation for overall length their 130 Hpbt and start low and work up.

    Here l was cleaning up my computer over the lock down to get all my reloading/shooting info in one place & came upon this old thread from the other pub, l kept as it has a lot of good info on reloading for the 260R in fact it was probably one of the better info threads on there .It is from all the way back in 2007 when the 260 was the 6.5 Creedmore of the day

    Back in 2003 l put one together for my wife & daughter to use based off a Rem Mountain Rifle & my daughter loved it & shot a lot of game with it & tried a wide variety of loads for it over the years.I am that old l can remember when you could walk into a gun shop & select from a wide variety of powders & bullets ,so dont think l ever used 780,but they cover just about all powder /bullet variety's so hopefully it gives you some helpful info.

    First step - pick a cartridge. Once you select 260 Rem then the next selection box appears - on mobile anyway. I was looking on a laptop earlier and it functions just the same
