I am looking for some load data for a .260 Remington. The books I have either don't have it listed or don't have the size bullet I am wanting to load. I am wanting to load Sierra 85 grain HP bullets, I would like to know what kind of powders I could use and minimum and max charges. If someone could look at a book for me I sure would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the website but it doesn't show a 85 grain bullet. I did notice that if you use the same powder and go to a higher weight bullet then the minimum grains reduce. So if I go with a lighter weight bullet and started with the next heaviest bullets starting load weight, then I should be ok for a starting load right?
 
Lyman has data for 85gr hp,what powder ya plan on useing?
Let me no and I can give ya the start,max load fo it.
 
That is what I am open to, what powders do they have listed. What I have onhand is w748, imr 4064, imr 4895, but if they have listing for Varget I would go pick some of that up. Thanks for the help.
