Nice shooting/groups! That's impressive accuracy for any out of the box rifle.

I've heard the Hunting line bullets are spectacular on game, don't hunt much big game anymore, small game mostly. Was stationed in Alaska for 6 years, did a lot of hunting there. I live in Ohio now and they do not allow rifles during deer season, shotgun slugs only! Pretty much a target/varmint shooter now, looking to get in some matches soon.

I know the 210gr 30 cal hunting VLD bullets I have are every bit as accurate as SMK bullets out of a 300 RUM and look nicer too :) . I have some Berger 130 VLD Target bullets I have yet to try in my 260. I do like bergers and have had luck with them in my 300 RUM, 308 Win, and 223. I also like when I requested load data from them, Walt Berger responded himself and gave me some tips! That was unbelievable! Nice company, and great bullets.
