Recently picked up a Ruger with a boat paddle stock in 270.
Looking for some load recommendations for this rifle shooting the 110gr accubond and 130 NBT.

Slim - Mine likes 49.0gr of IMR4064 and about any 130gr bullet you want to stuff in the case. Consistently sub MOA. Never tried the two bullets you mentioned though. I've run Win Power Points, Rem Cor-Lokts, Hornady, Speer, and about any standard cup-n-core in it I've laid hands on. YMMV

Case full of i4831 and pretty much any 130 grain bullet has worked for me. Never felt a need for a 110 bullet.

4350 works very well in a .270. Not the fastest, but reliable

Wasn't the 110 grain accubond made for the 6.8 grendell in the AR-15 platform? Nothing wrong with IMR 4350 in the 270. H4831 is the classic powder for the 270.

Anyone used any IMR 4350? A lot of guys will tell you 4831 is the powder to use, but I've had good luck with IMR4350 with 130 gr sierras, 130gr. nosler partitions, and 150gr Nosler partitions..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Slim, I have the exact gun as your.
I could not get the 110g Accubond to shoot worth beans, however the 110g tipped triple shock shoots like a benchrest rifle with the following loads:
I seat the bullets .050 off the lands
58.0g of win 760, 210 primer-3400 fps
57.5g of R#17, Fed 215 primer-3350 fps
I bedded the recoil lug on the stock and that is all. My rifle shoots this load in 2" groups(or tad smaller) at 300 yards with a 3.5x10 leupold.
Weird thing is that the same loads with the 110g Sierra and the 110g Hornady Hp also shoot very tiny groups. The 110g Sierra is a whale of a deer bullet.
I will never shoot another 130g bullet in a 270 ever again!

I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...
