I've used the 62 gr. H4831 load in both Won. & Rem. brass with no ill effects. The last few years I've settled on 60 gr. It shoots 3050 fps in my 22" Mod. 700 and is just as accurate. Another load O'connor liked was 49.5 gr. 4064 with 130 gr. bullets. It gives virtually the same velocity in my gun and just as accurate.
Thank you, I was going to mention IMR4064 but didn't recall the charge weight and didn't want to "weigh in" to the thread without it.
IIRC, Jack said something along the lines of "if your .270 doesn't shoot well with a 130 grain bullet and 49.5 grains of 4064 there is something wrong with the rifle".
