I am already reloading cartridges in the .223, 6.5 grendel, 30/06 and several pistol calibers. Now I am a proud owner of a Savage Striker in .260 Remington and I am totally lost. I love the 6.5 caliber as my grendel is something special in it's own right, but I have no clue how to load for a 14" barrel and get the most in the way of accuracy and performance. There is a lot of information in the reloading manuals for loading the .260 but they are done using a 22"-24" barrel depending on manual. I need information from guys that reload for the Striker as to how to find a starting point with powders like 4350, 4831 and 4895 to work in the 14" barrel.
My pistol is a Savage Striker 510F .260 Remington 14" factory barrel w/ no brake. It has a Burris 2x7 EER scope.
I would appreciate any suggestions for starting loads on anything from 100 grain bullets to the 140 grainers. I have them all because of my 6.5 Grendel and the powders to go with them.
I would also appreciate hearing suggestions as to who is a good pistol smith for trigger and barrel work on this pistol to maximize it's potential as a bench gun. It is just a fun gun for me, but I want it to be at it's best.
Thank you for any suggestions.
