Did not read through this whole thread so forgive me if this is a repeat.
Having said that, my 24" factory barreled Win Model 70(270 Win cal) shoots Nosler 140gr Accubonds into tiny little groups using 61.5 gr of Reloader 26. Chronographed velocity is 3,185 fps. Bolt lift is not stiff, no shiny marks on the case head and primers aren't flat. What's not to like? I'm happy!
Good luck,
Leftybolt
PS: Federal 215 Mag primers tightened up my groups considerably vs standard 210 primers. Velocities with both primers was about the same.
