Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Good .270 Winchester Loads

I use 62 gr. IMR 7828SSC behind the 130 Sierras and 130 Hornadys for a muzzle velocity of around 3200 fps out of a 24" barrel. Accuracy is great and also 200 fps faster than the old standard of 60 gr. H4831. 61 gr. 7828SSC with the 140 Hornady works well too for a veloctiy of about 3100 fps. With the 150 Hornady, I load 59.5 gr. of 7828SSC for about 3000 fps. Approach these loads with caution of course, but I haven't had any problems in 3 different .270 bolt actions. I use WLR primers and R-P cases.
