[QUOTE="budlight, post: 2037158, member: 2939"] With the advent of the new powders I went to retumbo and R-26 for heavy .277 and StaBall 6.5 for lighter weights. Staball 6.5 is great for 120gr HPBT varminting rounds. I should have bought more before this fiasco. They used to sell bulk 2000 rounds for $205 delivered Just smokes out of my 29 inch barrel. I started out with 100 gr SP & Hp, but they were flat based and poor BC. Then I found 110 spbt. little better BC. The 120's are the long range Prairie Poodle eliminators. Speer makes 115 bt with a .401 BC, but I have not tried them. I really like the 270 AI, but you are limited to @ 66 grains. the 270 WSM holds a few more grains at up to about 70. [/QUOTE]
