What is the highest BC hunting bullet in .277/270 caliber? #12722658 03/16/18 Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 17,389 David_Walter OP Campfire Ranger OP David_Walter Campfire Ranger Joined: Sep 2004 Posts: 17,389 I have a friend with a 270, and he wants me to reload it for long range. I suggested he swap barrels to a 280, but that's not happening. Ideas? Is it this? He has a 1 in 10" Rate of twist, so this might not work. http://www.bergerbullets.com/introducing-the-berger-270-caliber-170-grain-eol-elite-hunter/ Which probably means this? https://www.hornady.com/bullets/rifle/270-cal-.277-145-gr-eld-x#!/ Last edited by David_Walter; 03/16/18. “Live free or die.

I believe that meets or beats where a 280AI might be shooting 160 ABs. Berger's 170gr EOL VLD is higher... but not sure how fast it'll run in a 270win. and you probably wouldn't see any advantage at hunting ranges. "You know why nobody panic buys 30-06 ammo? ...

Litz tested the 150 LRAB to be .543 in 10twists and .569 in 7 twists. So, I guess it is up to how fast you can push the 150 in a 10 twister vs the 145 "You know why nobody panic buys 30-06 ammo? ...

Brux, Boots, Krieger, Hawk Hill apparently can’t hold PN’s jock strap per old HitHisBean.

I was told this by a old bullet and gun ballistic engineer 40 years ago when he was 70 some years old. and to be honest the swede`s 6.5 bullet is even better now that`s just another thought to think about ?????

Fred, I've NEVER had a thread on the 'fire not get "derailed." Its all good. Do you prefer the 145 ELD to the 130 E-Tip? The local Sportsmans has the 130 E-Tip factory loads on the shelf for $24.99/box. I know its marked wrong, but may get all of them just because. “Live free or die.
