    Southwest Precision

    3.5 years may be a little late, but Bob Racine at Southwest precision builds **** accurate rifles for a good price! The 260 he built me shot .25 moa with factory ammo and I know have a 140 vld load that shoots .1 regularly

    big louisiana whitetails 140 vld

    Three deer taken with the 140 berger vld 6.5 mm out of my 260 rem this year at 2850 fps. A head shot doe at 152 yds, a 240 lb buck at 80 yards, and a 220 pound buck the ol lady shot at 200 yards! I was worried about the close range performance of the vld on deer but not anymore! The only shot...

    monster alligator gar in lousiana

    Alligator gar hunting/fishing in Louisiana. The ultimate river monster! 100 pound fish are quite common and 150-200 pounders are not that uncommon with the occasional giant over 200-250 pounds or more!

    260 Remington load development

    Glad you brought that up it was a concern i had. Once this lot of brass has all been fired i figured id try the same load with fl sized and neck sized brass as well to see what happens. If it keeps shooting like this ill be happy to say the least! Long as it stays close to half inch at 200 ill...

    260 Remington load development

    Thanks, I'll have to try some 4831 or a different primer maybe. I've tried it in 15 thou increments from 50 thou off to 10 jammed with decent results about 20 off but just not what I know this rifle is capable of with other bullets. I've been wanting to try 4350 or 4831 but I'm out and it's hard...

    260 Remington load development

    Forgot to put my question in the first post lol. I have about 600 140 amax and haven't had much luck finding a load. Any recommendations on jump/jam? I still have 5-600 140 vlds but got the amax on sale almost half the price so I'm really hoping to find a good load with them

    260 Remington load development

    So built this rifle last year and I think I finally found a good load for it. It's been quite a head scratcher. Best load so far is 41gr rl 17 140 Berger vid and cci 200 primer. Tried like hell with 140 amaxes but never got under 1/2 moa. The Berger load shoots .1-.2 on every trial so far @ 2.88...

    100 grain amax in 260

    That 100 grain amax at 3500 is gonna be hard to beat! I shot some more of my 140 grain loads the other day but temp was up 25 degrees from first testing so I had some bolt stick and marks on case heads. I'm in Venezuela now til April for work but when I get back I'm gonna try backing off a...

    100 grain amax in 260

    I'm also working on a couple of loads for my 260. So far I've found that 42.5-43.5 grains of rl 17 is getting me at or a little over 2920 fps with no pressure signs with both 140 amax and 140 berger with accuracy well under .5 moa but I think once I play with it a little more I think I Should be...
