[QUOTE="z28camaro, post: 707629, member: 55878"] I too am working up a new reload for my 270wsm. The rifle is a Weatherby Vanguard and has been a great shooter so far. Sights are a Nikon 3x9x40 with BDC. I have been shooting Winchester factory 140 gr. Accubonds but have now begun my reload workup. Used for hunting deer, bear and coyotes. Today I loaded a beginning load to try this weekend. I just wondered if others thought this should be nin the ballpark.Note: I would have likede to try the Magpro powder but do not have any and time is tight. I used new Winchester brass ( Is is just me or did they cheapen up the brass they sell. It seemed very rough around the case mouth with dents etc.. I do not remember seeing this before)? Anyway I primed them with Wichester magnum rifle primers and loaded in 62.5 grains of IMR-4350. The bullets I decided to try for the first time is Barnes TSXbt 140 Gr. Iv'e never hunted with these bullets but I wanted to try them. I set the COL at 2.805 to start. There are many thoughts out there so I chose this to see how they shot. This should put me just under .040 off the lands in my gun. I read that doing this seems to work out well for this caliber. It does seem wierd as this bullets seating leaves the top groove in the bullet just showing. Any thoughts are welcome. Shoot well and Shoot Often. They go together. [/QUOTE]
