Good 260 Rem Load

[SamSamson]

Hi folks and thanks in advance, but do any of you have a good load for 260 Rem? I'll be using VV N140 powder but otherwise what projectiles, how much powder? Again thanks for your help. I do have one load that I got from the young man that traded me the rifle but its using Reloader 15 and I dont have any of that powder and cant afford any at this time.

Accubonds for hunting,ballistic tips for groups,I would only load a few and shoot,every rifle is different.

I believe N140 is pretty close to RL15, so if you compare his load to published data for N140, it may get you to a good starting point.
