I used the 140 NAB in a semi-custom .270 I gave my Marine SIL. It was after his return from his first Iraq deployment. It was a simple, nicely blued Mod 700 BDL .270 but fitted/bedded into a beautiful marble cake English Walnut stock. I forget the charge/powder but it shot the 140 NAB into a small cluster! He killed one doe with it up on his grand dads old place, up in PA. Made a good memory for him.
