I am shooting Berger 150 gr vld's, remington brass, remington mag primers, 56.5 gr of H4350. Average fps around 2900.
Total case length 2.745. The bullet needs to be touching the rifling.
Here's a little range report on one...

140 nosler accubond, 62 grains RL 19, win case, fed 215 primer, OAL 2.85 rifle-tika t3lite, group size=.691
these are all hunting loads, i would recomend starting below these loads and working up.
i've used the 140 accubond on every thing from yotes to elk at ranges from 20 yards to 615 yards with exceptional results. these will dump a mule deer at 600 yards like nobody's buisness( right through both shoulders).
Here is the Alliant link for the 270 WSM. We just got done working up loads for the 140 gr Accubond and the H-4350 did much better all around.
Reloading Data
I just finished breaking in my barrel for my new .270 WSM. Now to find a load that likes my gun. I've heard that RL22 is a good powder. I got a pound of it, now I can't find any reloading data for it. Has anyone tried RL22 and what load should I start with the 130 grain Horn Interlock?
