Hi Dawg, I am not suggesting everyone rushes out to buy Rem Mags what I am saying is that the 270 has its limitations, with a poorly angled hit that sometimes happens but looked alright when the...

And there is 160gr partitions also. How would these go with a bit of superformance up them? Nipping on the heels of a 7mm rem mag.

Dawg.......you sound like a man after my own heart when it comes to expending $$$$ so ......buy a 15 sample pack of 150grn partitions.....put them together with a load that you think looks about...

Only tried the 145 gr ELD X but the 150 gr bullet should work well just remember to use 2213 SC data and work up to the Max. In some cases you may be able to go over that but because Superformance...

@Dwag, I haven't tried 130 gr bullets with Superformance but it most likely will move them pretty quick. I think Moa Hunter is right a heavier bullet at a good speed is going to be better on those...

Red deer are not hard to kill. But some people find them difficult to hit in a killing spot. :)

Why would you want to use 130's when you can shoot 140 Accubonds. 130's are perfect for all run of the mill yearlings, spikers etc plus any pig but they are just a bit light for a big rutting stag...

Yes my load for the 145 Gr ELD X at 57 grs of Superformance works well in my Tikka, if you are going to try that load start lower and work up. Superformance has a burn rate slower than 2213 SC so a...

Look up Moosemans loads with 140 grnrs and Superformance and you may choose a new path to enlightenment. I wouldn't panic too much about your loads if you don't have pressure signs. For years...

Yea its pretty slow for a 130gr load with that much pressure, you would be better off switching to 2213sc or N560 and running at least that fast or more with less pressure

Book maximums are always conservative. 3080fps is not extraordinary for a 130gn pill in the 270win with a 24" barrel so if you are not getting any pressure signs (stiff bolt lift etc) then I don't...
