Dougy Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Well after a fair bit of tinkering, and frustration I have finally got a decent hunting/target load for my Remington 260. I have managed so source a few 140 grain Amax, and some powder, combined with just the right powder weight and seating depth ( Oh ! no were's Kent ) its grouping well i'll say not too bad . 0.2 and less but thats just 3 x 3 shot groups, so room for error there i think. The bad news I think my Sako 22.250 has died, It's no longer showing the clover leaf groups it used to It seems to have opened up to a ridiculous 1/2 inch at 100yds. I am gutted. So watch this space for some long range bunny bashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldwanderer Posted April 16, 2015 Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 You're not the only one with a sako .22-250 that's on its way out. What used to be 8-10mm groups of 5 at 100yds is now 3/4" I suspect catton may well finish it off but roll on the .260 rebarrel if that happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dougy Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) Glad the 260 is performing the good news on the 22-250 you can have something interesting now!!! MORE INTERESTING THAN A 22.250 !!!!!! I am not 100% sure yet It may just be a glitch I will try a little something first before i scrap it,, I have just measured the 260's group and it looks impressive Edited April 16, 2015 by Dougy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
