new .260

[kosh79]

Well finally got my rifle done last month while I was home on R&R. Had Kevin Cram from Montour County Rifles build it from my Rem 700 VTR.

I did not have alot of time to do all the load testing that I would have liked but there will be more time for that this summer. After a few runs at 100yds I got a quick work up of the load I was gonna use till I could get more time for proper testing.
Moved back to 400 yds shooting with a 5 1/2 mph cross wind

Load being used was N160 at 44 gr with 139gr scenars avg vel of 2853 I dont have my printout with me here in Afghan for the ES and SD
