Pretty dang impressive velocities. I'd be interested to hear how your brass holds up with 140's going as fast as 130's.

Please post your results with the RE 26 and 150 Partitions. Happen to have a couple hundred 150 NPT sitting on the bench to concoct for my 270.

that is pretty crazy performance.
I've been relatively happy with ~2770 fps out of my dads 270 using 150 PT's. H4831- 57.0 gr.
this load (mine) pretty well duplicates the factory ammo (Federal) performance.
yall are waaaay faster than that. glad to hear accuracy hasn't suffered in the process.

I don,t know what happened Saturday. RL26 was all over the
target. May have been me, or a dirty bore. I,d shot about
100 rounds thru it without cleaning. So far RL26 has highest
velocities for 150gr bullets in 270 Winchester. But
Norma MRP has been the most accurate so far.

7977 is definitely on my list, but haven't bought or played with it yet. I have some 4451 to try and it's reported to be quite good with the 130s in the 270, but again, I haven't been able to play with it yet. And now there's 4955...this is getting tiring!

Hodgdon doesn't list superformance with any loads for the 270? Are you seeing them elsewhere?

Anybody working with 7977? I bought some last week and will stuff it under 150 Partitions when deer season is over in a few weeks.

I used superformance with 140gr Accubonds, Very accurate
and gave 3070fps. Had pressure problems with 150gr bullets,
don,t use any more. Used Winchester cases and WLR primers.
With federal cases you have to reduce loads 1 full grain.

Postscript: Beretz texted me Alliant loading data today for the 270 and 150 gr bullet.
Lo and behold......RL26 showed 3034 fps from a 24" barrel with 60.4 gr and 150 gr bullet.WW brass and Fed 210 primer.
It was higher than RL23 and RL17. Time to put a tin lid on this thead. The muzzle break is installed on my 270 & finally got around to chronoing the RL 26 maximum load. I got an average of 3191 fps for 4 shots an SD of 4 and the 3 shot group measures out to .519". Load is 60.8 grains using the Federal 210 m and 150 LRAB. Still kicks... 41
We deal in lead, friend.

RL26 will give highest velocity, Then Norma MRP, with150 gr bullets, with140gr bullets I us RL23. Have heard N560 is very good but can not purchase any here.

I have Winchester, Hornady and Nosler(brass) and use a 59 grain charge of H4831sc with 140 Accubonds in 2 different rifles.
The Nosler stamped brass weighs a fair amount less than the Winchester.
Give or take velocities.
22" = 2950-80fps.
24" = 3020-3060fps.
50-70F.
According my Chrony the 22" barrel velocity will be roughly 100 fps less when it's below zero(from 70F).
(if I remember correctly) My exact load and it's accurate.
HMM-161, HMM-364
