I just took delivery of one in 260 last Friday and put the first 25 rounds through it for break in. Mounted a Nightforce Benchrest with Ken Farrell mounts. Threw together 140 A-max, 44gr H4831, fed match primers, Lapua Brass. .025" off the lands. After my 10th break in shot went to 3 shot groups. Got four, 3 shot groups, .3-.5 MOA at 100 yards. Very little copper fouling. This is my fourth Savage and by far the nicest. Fit and finish is excellent. I really like the HS Recision stock, and the trigger is a very crisp and cosistant 1.5# pull, out of the box. The clip will easily fit and feed the long VLD's when loaded to the lands. Can't wait to fine tune my load.
