Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles 140 grain Accubonds in 270 Weatherby

Does anybody have any loads worked up with 140 g AB in 270 Weatherby that they are interested in sharing with me?

Thanks for your time

This works well in my dads custom rifle very well but as usual you should reduce and work up. 72 grains VuhtaVouri N560 shoots bug hole with the 140 AB

I use 1 gr. under max load of Reloader 22 with the 140 Accubond. It will consistanly shoot 3/4" @100 yds.

Cartridge : .270 Weath. Mag.
Bullet : .277, 140, Nosler AccuBond 54765
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.295 inch or 83.69 mm
Barrel Length : 26.0 inch or 660.4 mm
