So, Any favorite powders for this cartridge?

Staying on point with the 130g Hornady, H4350 is my first choice (last I looked it was available), with H4831 close behind (it's available). As mentioned it takes a more H4831 than H4350 to obtain the same velocity, usually the same accuracy.

The H's are more temp stable than the IMR versions in the 270, I have cold weather tested 8-9 different powders with 150's and 130's in a variety of 270's and the H powders have always been the most stable. More stable than RL26 too, but it's stable enough to be confident it'll shoot to the same place.
