[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 465214, member: 13632"] Your barrel twist may come into play if you want to play with the 160+gr bullets, but they are the holy grail for 270 guys! If you haven't look search royinidaho and check out his threads, he's working on re-pointing 150gr bullets with a point that raises the BC and weight. The 140 Accubond is awesome as well as the Berger's, I was unable to break 800yrds on game this year with them so I can give anything on terminal performance over that, up to that it's outstanding! I run Retumbo for powder with the 140's and get 3300 to 3340 in the 26in barrel, depending on the bullet. I was able to run them 3420 with Magpro but could not get accuracy at that point. I'm very comfortable with antelope and deer to the 1000yrd mark and elk to 800yrds, once I get re-barreled for the heavier bullets we'll go farther!!! It's a very capable cartridge!! [/QUOTE]
