Help with my new 260

[plunker20]

Just got a new tscustoms rifle. Now I need to load some rounds for it but my problem is its a 18" rifle. My 26" 260 loves 142 smk with h4350, should I go to a faster burning powder like varget or cfe I also have some benchmark and h1000 I plan on shooting 100 amaxs and/or 123 system possibly some 120 amaxs depending on how the other 2 shoot anyone have any suggestions for me?

start with the 4350

H4350 will get you more speed, but if you have Varget to burn, It seems to work pretty damn well in the 260.

I load varget in a 22" Broughton with 123s and it is very accurate.

39.3gr Varget with a 120/123.

The short barrel will do just fine with 142s and H4350; I get 2700fps from my 20" 260 with 43.0gr H4350 and a 142.
