M1: Well, I always figured, if you're gonna carry a 270,might as well get 270 velocities smile I know it might not matter from the standpoint of the killing,and I'm not suggesting you redline your loads,but I have noticed many 270's group better operated at or near max,especially with todays powders and good rifles.

Plus if you are old fashioned like me,and want flat trajectory,no question 3100 fps shoots flatter than 2750,past 300 yards grin

Jeff: It has been awhile since I loaded the 7/08 and 7x57,but think I used RL 19 in each.H4350 works well,too......RL17 today???




The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
