H4831 has never produced top velocity in the few 270’s I’ve loaded for. My current 270 really likes RL26 for both 130 and 150’s. H414 ain’t bad with 130’s either. I tried a few pounds of IMR4064 in the 30-06, was never that impressed. Generally speaking, I have much better luck with IMR4895 and RL15 in that burn rate. I keep hearing about this 130/4064 combo though, believe there was a recent mag article about it where the author did go up to O’Connor’s load. Maybe someone has a link.

BTW- Welcome to the fire. Grew up about an hour east of State College. Go Lions! Hope to be up fist weekend in Dec to see how the deer are doing.
