[QUOTE="joep17, post: 1403685, member: 1457"] Barrels vary, especially sporter weight. Harmonics are everything. I start with a ladder test to get the harmonics and then experiment with seating depth for best groups. Extreme spread in velocity is important to watch for. Lower velocity loads USUALLY will give better accuracy at the sacrifice of down range performance. You probably found the sweet spot for your barrel. Out of my 8 270's, I have consistently achieved good velocity with R19 and a close second with H4831. As one of the posts mentioned, that is the joy of reloading. If you are happy with your load, you will have confidence with your rifle. I believe that having confidence is extremely important in hunting situations as it is one less variable to be concerned about when you are squeezing the trigger on your trophy of your life time. Shoot the load you believe in. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
