[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 249443, member: 2011"] Hmmmm, I always chime in on these 270 Win threads. If the truth be known, I'm the world's least known expert on the 270 Win!:rolleyes: That is since O'Connor left the scene. Truthfully though, and expert on only one 270 Win. The one I've had for 40+ years.:) I loaded it with two distinct loads. One for Predators, yotes and smaller One for Deer and any thing larger. Both loads worked great but the Deer and bigger load was a bit wimpy on a 70 yard moose. May as well shot him with an arrow. Best primers are Non Mag. CCI-200s work best for me. Best powders 90 gr Bullet - 4835 130/140 class bullets - 4350/RL-22/Norma 205/MRP which is the same as RL-22 bit way less quality control from lot to lot. Best bullets - 130 Sierra Boat Tail/130 Nosler Ballistic Tips/ 140 NABs, Bergers. I loaded for the same model you mentioned with a 140 Berger and 7828ssc and got great accuracy. It took a nice cow elk at 80 yds. I didn't chrono the load. Out of a 27" Lilja I expect 3200 FPS MV with 130s and 140s which is plenty sufficient for a 270 Winny. The Sierra 90gr Hollow Point if my favorate yote and below load. I move it out at 3400 FPS and it drops like a cannon ball right at 420 yards. I've never hit a chuck, yote, ground squirrel over 420. At 419.5 they are DRT at 420 I just throw dirt on 'em. With a 130/140 or even a 150 Ballistic Tip it should make one heck of a game getter. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
