Think about how FGMM ammo can shoot so well in a variety of different rifles and barrel lengths, the same with SW ammo. I think if you have the right recipe (optimal charge weight and velocity with consistant neck tension) you can have a winner. I am a reloader and as a reloader, we are always tinkering with the load trying to get thaterfect load, and whenwe do we stick with it. Think about it, SW ammo was semi mass producing match ammo on Dillon progressive presses the same as FEderal does, and here i am weighing every powder charge! Oh well, it is my hobby. So i need (want) a 260 barrel so i can keep tinkering with a different cartridge |

Their recipe was nothing special, but their ability to reproduce results are what stood out compared to most factory ammo. Anybody who reloads has the ability to do it, given they have the proper tools. But time is money and many want to be able to just order what they want. |

A .260 barrel would be a suitable replacement to my Lothar Walther PredatOBR barrel... then I would actually have a legit Larue barrel on it, finally.

It would be pretty cool to see a Tobr get into the top 10 of the MOA Challenge. Even more so if it were a 260. The first non 223 in the SPR division is a DPMS at #9.

I also saw where my second entry was nocked down to 13th! I have this mental thing about being in the top ten. I would like to put another in the top 10, preferably a non 223. The two I would like to work on are 260 and 6.5G. The more I shoot my 260 the more I am liking it. My DPMS LR-10 might make the bottom 10. |

According to Julie, I got the first one that shipped (order #25192). When I contacted Larue later, asking about my match grade replacement, they said my rifle shipped with the LW barrel and not eligible. It shoots ok, but not what I was expecting. Oh well, still want a .260 barrel, though. |

This weekends range trip will be with the intention of improving the 308 tOBR entry. Though according to weather reports it looks like it'll be done in the rain. I'm extremely tempted to try it with a 308 Tar too, but since it may be sold I'm holding off on dirtying it up. I'm begging a friend to let me try it with his 6.5cm Ruger precision rifle too. Might have to look into putting together a 6.5G. It's just... The barrel I want is so expensive that it'll mean no assembly for a few weeks while I save up the funds. |

Interesting focus with the factory ammo for a 260. Match grade 308 ammo is relatively cheap, but match grade 260 is typically expensive, relatively speaking. Prime makes sense due to the cheaper cost, but I'd imagine most would be hand loading for that beast.
When are these projected to launch? I'm looking to get a 6 or 6.5 variant for matches, and this looks like a very good option. I'm assuming a 22 or 24" version could be available? I don't have a LaRue rifle yet, numerous parts, but this could be the first one. |

The Ptobr platform will do perfectly for this barrel coming from LT some time soon. Hopefully. |

I'm having a hard time finding that caliber option on LT.com. You got a link for me? I'd like to get one for a antelope hunt I've got coming this fall. |
