[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 259589, member: 307"] SPR1, IMO it's marketing hype. 140gn bullet at 2800ish from a 28" tube? The .260 does that with a 24" tube. It's based on the .308 case so feeding is no problem....from any magazine. I'm not gonna get on my soap box. Anyway, today I took the boss' Ruger M77 VT in .220 Swift out for a spin. I only shot two groups as it was 25*F. The first measured .626" and the second .5345". This was at 100yds with factory (Hornady 40gn V-Max Varmint Expess) fodder. I cleaned it beforehand. [IMG]http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd25/lorrieken/johnny/scan0006.jpg[/IMG] I didn't think this was too bad considering the conditions. Nothing has been done to the rifle. With a little load development I feel it would be better. JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
