Don't use in a semi auto.
I bought 2 boxes to try in a large frame AR. Only after I had several blown primers, was I advised by Federal that they do not make any .260 ammo suitable for semi-autos.

Devastator
Used to hunt deer and feral hugs with .308. This round is pure devastation to any game I’ve hit. Never had anything go more than 5yds after a shot.

Great ammo!
Does great in my gun! Averages about 2.5'' groups at 500 yards and shoots thumbtacks at 100 yards!
