Me too! I'm currently shooting 140 gr Berger hunting VLD's with super accuracy, but if I can get similar accuracy from the LRAB, I'll use it for big game.

Whats the coal of your loaded rounds with the 150 grian bergers or accubonds? Will they fit in a rem. short action?

At 3.03 COAL Probably a bit to long for Remington short action then, thats to bad.

About .25" short, unless you use a Wyatt's...
I'm more interested to see if a 1-10" will spin them right. I imagine so...

I hope so to. Just ordered a brux 1-10 twist last week. Berger suggests it for 150 grainers.

You should be fine, my 1-10" spun 165 Matrixes okay.
A Wyatt's should net you about 2.95" of COAL latitude. I'm not sure how feeding would be.

His barrel is an aftermarket barrel and has a longer throat than a factory chambering. I loaded some up in my M70 extreme weather with a factory 24" tube and I hit lands at 2.935" with this bullet and Norma brass which is perfect for a M70 which is longer than a rem700 SA (only reason I bought a M70 in 270wsm). Also I am hitting lands with 150gr interbonds at 2.870" so my throat is a lot shorter than his. These bullets are pretty slick they don't look like a VLD as much as the matrix bullets I have, but when measuring my lands the COAL was about the same as the 165gr Matrix bullets. So we will see how they shoot out of a factory rifle. Going to shoot some in the morning.

Threw a few loads together with the .277 150 LRAB this morning for my 270 Win. Hopefully get to try them here in the near future to see how they'll do. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x456/jfeiger/photo7_zps8be5fea1.jpg) Just as a curiosity, I took a pic of the 150 LRAB as compared to the 7mm 162 AMAX. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x456/jfeiger/photo6_zpsecbe742d.jpg)

Just as a curiosity, I took a pic of the 150 LRAB as compared to the 7mm 162 AMAX. Good looking bullet, but compared to the Amax, has what appears to be a fairly short tangent ogive with a longer bearing surface. Would love for the BCs to come out as advertised, but remain somewhat skeptical. Very interested to see the upcoming range reports. John
