I only own one .270 Win., and it is a finicky biotch!
Doesn't help that, only after multiple trips to the range, with multiple factory and hand-loaded recipes, I discovered that it won't shoot anything well without at least four or five fouling rounds through a clean barrel.
Having figured that out, I then tried at least a half dozen factory offerings, as well as hand loads with H4831SC, IMR4350, RL-22, IMR7828, IMR4895, and RL-19. Some even showed promise. But, alas, none were consistent.
I was just about to kick this rifle down the road when I stumbled upon some VV N-160 and gave it a whirl. It was a winner, @ 55.0 gr behind 130 gr Hornady Interlock SPs (WW brass, Fed 210 primer). Modest velocity for me at that charge (a little over 3000 fps), but very accurate and very consistent. Vihtavuori lists their max at 58.0 gr [for a 130 gr Remington SP], so there is more room to play, but I'm happy with what I've got.
So, of course, they aren't all easy to load for.
