One last note on the 25 souper. Anyone wanting another powder choice to try should look at Hodgdon's Benchmark. In the .260 rem data(Hodgdon's) a 95 gn bullet is shown at 3300+ w/ a 43.5 gn load of Benchmark. I tried 41.0 gns with a 100gn GK and it went through the chrono at an avg 3190 fps( 3 shots) with a toal dispersion of 16 fps. cases nearly fall out of my old sako with no sign of pressure at all. I'm ready to put it on paper and see what it groups!
