Hello all
,
I'm new to this forum and I have some information to share about my recent experience with this cartridge & powder combination. I used a F1 Shooting Chrony to verify the feet per second (Set a ways away from the muzzle @ 30 feet). I sighted in my scope while I was chronographing the cartridge loads.
The Savage Edge(Now the Axis model) in .270 Winchester/ 22" barrel/UTG Bipod/Mueller 3-10x44IGR 1/8"MOA riflescope were my tools of choice.
Powder=Hodgdon Hybrid 100V @ 55.0 Grains *56 grains is Hodgdons MAX load*
Brass =Winchester .270 - Primers(2) =CCI BR-2 (Benchrest) & WLR (Winchester) -
Bullet =Sierra .277 130gr. SBT #1820/BC .436 @ 2800 fps and above
COL/Case Overall Length =3.290 inches
>8 shots fired for effect per each primer brand & Cases fire formed & neck sized only<
8 shots: CCI BR-2 = 2980 FPS/.650 Grouping <--(Last 3 shots)
8 shots: WLR = 3050 FPS/.600 Grouping <--(Last 3 shots)
