I noticed that Nosler .270 Win brass unfortunately comes in two weights.
178 grains/case and 201 grains per case. Making a 23 grains weight difference per case.
201 grains is 12.9% heavier then 178 grains.
My favourite 270 Win load with 178 grain brass is already a safe hot one in my rifle.
Would you guys agree that I should drop my powder charge 12.9%, when I switch from 178 grains brass to 201 grains brass? Or is this a wrong assumption on my side?
Yes, I realize I can start ladder testing all over again, but try to save time, effort and money for this fine Cooper hunting rifle.
