I did a search but wasn’t successful. Is there a “pet loads” thread for the 270 Bee? If not, anybody wanna share what works for you?
Lately I'm shooting 70 gr. IMR 7828sc with a 140 accubond. No chronograph so don't know the velocity. 26" lilja and rem 700. Got good groups with 67 grains as well.
I have loaded 70.5 gr of H4831 sc, 110gr. Barnes TSX. got some 3/4' 3 shot groups at 100 yds. Not chronographed, but book velocity states 3320 fps.
Loaded these for Calif. deer but havnt taken one yet with the Weatherby.
I've been shooting a MK V 270 Wby quite a bit the past few years with the 130 TSX and TTSX, and more recently 129 LRX. RE 25 and 26 both work well giving the best combination of velocity and accuracy for me. IMR 7828 and Ramshot Magnum also work well. John Barsness has some load data he developed and published in his "Loads That Work" articles and as I recall, spoke highly of Ramshot Magnum. My current load is 76.0 RE 26 with the 129 LRX at around 3500 fps...

I load 140 Accubonds with Reloader 22. Damn accurate. There is plenty reloading info on Nosler website
71 gr IMR 7828 , Nosler 140 accubond , fed GM215 , 3.280”
Has repeatedly put up 3 shot groups measuring the likes of 0.625” at 200 yards if I don’t suck at steering that day .
Only goes 3280 FPS in my 26” mark v but I don’t complain
Don't have that caliber, but IMR7828 seems to the cat's ass in other Weatherby's from 240's up through 300's.
