[QUOTE="slas, post: 2967380, member: 39669"] Lots of good info, thanks for all that. I'm using Lapua brass now in the 260 but previously when I noticed the sticky rounds after about 4 or 5 firings, only neck sizing, I was using cheaper brass, in my 308. I'll try the anneal and neck size each time and go from there. I think you are probably being much more precise than I'll even need to be. Being realistic, my main goal is to be able to clover leaf three shots at 200-300 yards and be able to put a shot in the neck of any deer I'm targeting at those ranges. I am able to do it at 200 yards with my stock Tikka CTR 308, with the right glass. I'd also like to eventually do some coyote hunting, there were several taunting me this year while sitting in the blind. Or course I may get lucky and get to do another Elk hunt some day, or...... I just ordered a Brownells Acraglas bedding kit and a Tikka upgrade kit with pillars and new recoil lug. That will be my spring/summer project before next hunting season. I figured I have all summer to get a pet load straightened out. I'd like to have one for each 120, 130 and 140 grain, my other spring/summer project...... [/QUOTE]
