I've used it on several deer and several elk.

Sounds like a great load. I'm getting ready to take my new to me 270 fwt out. It's pretty beat up, but a cool old rifle.
Just put a red pachmayr on it. Initial tests will be with some factory ammo I got from a buddy. Then I will probably load up something with H4831. That Barnes bullet with Hunter sounds like a great idea though. I may try something like that as well:
