[QUOTE="MOJO67, post: 1078363, member: 68532"] The 270 Weatherby will smack the chit out of a 270 WCF, with all bullet weights. If you want to shoot high BC bullets, you are somewhat limited with a 12 twist, however. How far are you planning to shoot? If it's 500 or less, the slick bullets aren't going to make much difference. A 130 Accubond loaded in the 3400-3500 FPS range will work nicely on Elk. As for reloading, I've reload for all 3 270's(WBY,WSM,WCF). I've actually found the 270 Wby no more or less finicky than the other 2. It's actually been very trouble free. I suggest starting first with IMR-7828. With 130's, it's by far provided the best combo of accuracy and speed of all other powders i've tried. Most guy's I know who shoot the 270 Wby are using 7828. If for some strange reason, the 7828 doesn't work, try RL-22. [/QUOTE]
