Which 6.5 should I try next?

[JimT]

About 5 years ago I bought a .260 Savage LRP. It’s been an inconsistent nightmare. One thing after another. One day/session it shoots .5 or better and the next it sprays all over. Won’t keep zero. Chrono shows numbers great one time, crap the next.
I have a few more things I’m going to try before I give up, and I’m almost there....
So, the question for the group: Which 6.5 should I try next? I’d like to keep the platform I have and just make a barrel and mag switch. Just wanting to smash milk jugs at 1000.
Thx

Hey fellas, with a lot of help from a few on this and other forums I got the 260 driving tacks with 2 different loads. One with H4350 and one with H4831sc.
Single digit SD, groups .2-.5, good speed and most importantly the loads are repeatable from one loading session to the next.

What were the loads that you ended up with if you don't mind me asking?

41.1 H4350 with br2s gets me 2800 and 44.0 H4831sc gets me 2850 with 139 Lapuas. 6sd 16es
Fairly good groups, too.

Glad to hear it's shooting well now!
