I should note here, she didn't like it, so I shortened the barrel for a factory .260 Rem chamber using 34gr. H4895 with 160gr. Sierra's for 'about' 2,250 to 2,300fps.

She loves that load and put 10 shots into 2" at 100 meters, elbow rested sitting at a bench only, no bags nor Bench Rest.

The scope was taped at 4X. The target was a full sized, but black silhouette of a deer with no marks, no aiming point. She asked me where to aim, I said kill the deer. She would have.

8 of the 10 shots were under 1 1/4" closer to 1 1/8".

I wasn't going to mention it, but the best I did with that load for 5 shots, was 1 1/8", double bagged.

She did that with 8 shots, elbow rested on a concrete bench.




That's some really good shooting Daryl...good for her..
