Gunner, I carried a 270 that was handed down by a gent that had Cancer when he wrote his will. I had used 270s many times before, but wanted to honor him/his life by properly breaking in this rifle so off to Colorado it went...

MY loads safe in that rifle using IMR4350 only yielded 150 NP @2850...using 52.0, vs. IIRC 52.5 Book Max. I know there are better powders - but it's what I had and shot fine.

Mulie, 275 yds, went from Neck to JUST under the hide in the rear ham, 99.9% penetration....

No, a few fps either way won't matter. As to recoil, I noticed cheap 130 CL factory were mild, and I am sure under spec if you clocked them.

BOTH work well, I like both - but partial to the Swede being a 6.5 nut/slut.
