Ron,

I've used the following powders in my 260 Rem during load development:

H4831-- Best Groups but lack on MV
H4831SC-- Best Groups but lack of MV
Ramshot Hunter-- worked better for the .270 Win with the 145 ELD-X
Enduron 4451-- MEH
RL-17, 19, 25, 26-- Good velocities, but didn't group as well as I wanted
IMR 7828-- Good groups, just not great-- Velocities were a little low.
VihtN560-- Decent groups and MV-- just hard to find an Hella Expensive
H4350-- the Winner!! Groups were .5 MOA or better and velocities around 2750-2800 FPS (25" CBI barrel)

All of these powders were used with the 143 ELD-X as the projectile and Lapua brass.

Happy load development!!
