[QUOTE="Roughwater, post: 661313, member: 33915"] Lefty, Problem is that I'm using a 165 gn bullet, not a 130 so it's got to go deeper into the case as it's a much longer bullet. Also, considering the weight of the bullet, as you can't load a high performance 165 gn bullet with the same powder load as you can a high performance130 gn bullet. Going to Winchester brass might not be a bad thing in it's self. Right now I am using mostly Norma brass. Some say it's soft but most say it's some of the best made brass out there. As to the Hornady interbond bullets, they are decent big game bullets, cheap and easy to load just like you said. But I'm wanting to load a bit heavier bullet with better BC. Someone on here recommended H 1000 for these heavy 270 bullets so I'll make up a couple loads of it and see how that does. I just finished making up a few Magpro bullets with a slightly heavier powder load than I used earlier today. I'm thinking they may get me to 2800 fps or close anyway. It would be nice if the accuracy was the same or close to the Magpro load my friend shot today with the Ruger. Terry [/QUOTE]
