[QUOTE="SWHandldr, post: 2607120, member: 114858"] At any reasonable velocity, poor accuracy is likely. 1:10 isn't gonna spin 'em fast enough to stabilize. I'd stick with 130-150 grainers in a .270. Proven to work by decades of hunter use on thosands (or tens of thousands) of deer. Unlikely to be any rifle or shooter damage seated to cycle thru the action - but those long heavy bullets will be seated so deep you'll limit powder capacity & velocity. 721's typically are classics. Accuracy ranges from about 2.5 inches to around an inch at 100 yds, depending on the rifle. And the hunter. Scheel's shows 145 gr ELD-X's available to ship at $45/100 (plus shipping). First place I looked, probably available other sources too at similar prices. Seat 'em to cycle through the mag over a midrange load of 4831 or similar & you oughta be good to go. [/QUOTE]
