I use 60.0 grains H-4831 with a 130 grain Swift A-Frame with a average velocity of 3130fps from a 22" barrel. The same powder and weight with a 130 grain Trophy Bonded Tip has the average velocity of 3070 fps from the same barrel length.
Hey there elk hunter. Since i have lot's of H-4831 That's what I will start with. I have ordered some Barnes .277 129gr LRX bullets. These Barnes bullets in my 6.5's have given me complete penetration on elk over the years .Always deadly accurate & never failed me. They should also be devastating in the 270. My rifle has a 24" Bbl. so maybe 70 or so more FPS ( 35 fps per inch ) over a 22". Will see. I can chronograph now but my range is covered with about 30" of snow. That'a just part of leaving at 7630' elevation.
I can't thank all of you enough for your help. . This is my first 270 so you info, all of it is invaluable.
