    I have a 260 ai LOVE IT TO BITS .If I had my time again I would keep it a straight 260 reason being fire forming is another expense.I fire form using old projectile's that are free @R93 uses another method which works well for him.My current load which is my hunting load in a 24" is
    45.5gn of 2209 fed LR primers 140gn amax gives me 2858fps which is very accurate with more than enough stopping power.There are guys on her getting good results and speeds out of there 260 Ai's with diff projectiles so try typing in 260Ai and you will find heaps of good info from some knowlegable guys.Good luck and welcome to the forum.Another guy very worth while chatting to who gets great results and uses a lot of different loads in his straight 260 is @Gillie.
