Thread: 260 amax load data

How are you doing with those amaxes Bill. I have shot 100gr amaxes really well sub inch 5 shot groups but they are going really slow at about 2800fps and shot a few half to 3/4 inch groups with the 140s in Winchester brass resized fom 243 to 260 but the speed spread was around 50fps. But when I changed to lapua 260 brass my accuracy for some reason wasn't as good but the speed spread was 13 fps . I'm reasonably new to reloading and having fun but I can wait to get my 260 humming haha

Interesting what you say about lapua .260 brass.
I lost a bit of speed but achieved a bit more accuracy when I formed and loaded up some unsorted rem brass.
I need to do some more testing in case I just had a good day, but it is looking better than all my results with Lapua .260 brass so far.
