Which would be the better powder with 130 gr bullets? I know there are other powders that are probably better but due to the current high demand this is what I have on hand.

Slam dunko I4350! I've used it off and on for over 3 decades and it's pretty much as good as it gets.

Dober

I'll give it a try.

I've never used 4350 in the .270 but I've used 4064 a lot and it works good. 49.5 gr. 4064 with 130 gr. bullet is an old O'Conner load. It gives 3050 fps out of my 22" bbl. and is accurate too. Good load.

I use 4064 in my buddies .270 that I load for with 100 gr plinkers, then 4350 for everything else

I will go with Dober and the I4350.
H4831 and RL22 work good for me too.

If 4831 were not an option, then I would much prefer 4350.

I prefer 4064 first...4350 second..

in mine, the velocity winner is the 4350...

the accuracy champ is 4064...

I'll take accuracy and a 100 fps less MV for an increase in accuracy any day...

That has been my experience with those powders in an '06. Interesting that it works that way for you in the .270. I guess I just had it in my mind that 4064 would be too fast for that cartridge, and I've had good luck velocity/accuracy wise with 4831. I'll have to try it.

They both work good......I used to load a lot with both powders in the 270.....

That O'Connor load of 4064 was used on everything by him, from deer to moose and grizzly.A side benefit of 4064 is that it has milder report and boots less than the slower powders.

You can throttle the 4064 load back 47-48 grs, to give 2700-2800 with the 130 and 140 gr bullets, and good accuracy,and PRESTO...you have a 7x57 or 7/08! How easy was that!

Older thread but my experiences with IMR-4064 is that it acts like a slower powder in LA cases and a faster powder in SA cases. I have used it in everything from .223 to 30-06 with good to excellent results throughout.

If a .270 won't shoot 54 or 55 grains of 4350 with a 130 into tiny clusters, there is a problem. 4064 and 4895 are sweet in .270 and .308.

My 22" stainless hawkeye loves this load with Barnes 130's.

Emasculate a 270? It's that easy? I thought it was just gay . . .

Wondered how long it would take a gay reference to show up...
