At 100 yards, off the bench, it holds 3 shot groups at less than a half inch. Does anybody have any information on replicating the factory load for winchester 150 grain power points? If so, can you help me out? thanks.


My accurate/hunting load for my .270 Win. is a 150 gr. Partition and 57 grs. of Rldr-22. This combo gives me about 2930 fps.
I would advise that you chrono the factory loads and work handloads up to that velocity. I'd use the Sierra 150 gr. bullet or, maybe, the Hornady. I hope the group you mention is continually repaetable and not a one time fluke. One time groups like that happen all the time. Hope this helps some.
