    rough rule of thumb when loading for the 260, projectiles under 130gr use 2208, 130 and heavier use 2209, seems to work well.

    I would load a few up of each bullet weight and powder and run them through a chronograph and see what's best, checking for accuracy at the same time.

    Hey Johnd, if you give me your expected seating depth in form of COAL for each projectile, I can run the different powder/projectile combo's through quickload for you.
