[QUOTE="KY Gun Geek, post: 287411, member: 13807"] Don't shoot a 270, so no direct experience. However, I have been working on a 338 since March and had a similar situation - sticky bolt on a warm day (though I haven't tried the cooler yet). I know I'm on the ragged edge - I bumped the charge until I got a sticky bolt (and loose primers) then backed off a grain. Weather got hot and I got some bolt issues again. Backed off another 1/2 and have no problems. No, I won't post the load, there's a good chance your rifle won't handle it. I will tell you I'm pushing a 225 gn Accubond about 2990. Powder is H4350 (an Extreme). But hey, I'm playing on the edge... [/QUOTE]
