    I do the 270 to 280 conversion all the time with Fedral cases. You have to anneal the 270 case, run it through 30-06 dies, anneal again, and then run it through the 280 dies. Weird looking case until...

    You could try 2217. I use it in a 270Win pushing 150LRAB's or 140VLD's. 2217 is a little faster than 2225.
    2209 is pretty fast in a 270WSM with a 150 grain "anything" in front of it. I would expect...

    G7 BC's

    Found this report the other day by accident. It might be of use to some of the Long Range shooters. Measured G7 BC's for Hornady, Sierra, Nosler, & Barnes projectiles.
