[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 187791, member: 307"] SummitSitter, I have the same rifle/caliber and I really like mine. Doing load development for mine. I have only loaded and shot the 130gn Ballistic TIp and the 135gn SMK. Both easily shoot .5" or better. I haven't chrono'd any loads yet but from all accounts I have, it's faster than the .270Win. I'll probably go to the 140gn bulet for deer. I saw a cross section of the Ballistic Tip and AccuBond (same cal/weight) and there wasn't any difference that I could tell (other than price). If the NBT is more accurate than the AB then that's what I'll probably use. I think Barnes is coming out with a 120gn TSX in this caliber. Heck yeah it'll kill a deer out to 6-700yds! With a accurate 140gn bullet at 3200+ fps it'll be a death ray. Look at the ballistics compated to the other .270's and 7mmRM. As my pappy used to say "I can show ya better than I can tell ya".....JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
