[QUOTE="Roughwater, post: 1512247, member: 33915"] I have a 270 WSM but in a Winchester shadow. I have been reloading some 150 gn Matrix bullet that shoot Sub Moa but haven't shot any game yet with them but the first load I tried with these bullets was sub MOA. I have only shot out to 300 yards but but it shot sub MOA easily that far with a 165 Grain Matrix VLD bullet which has a very high BC. I used 65.8 gn of Winchester 780 but as always one should start several grains lower and work up. That Hells Canyon is a beautiful rifle! I was just fondling one myself today. I am considering getting one in a 28 Nosler but that Christensen Arms Mesa Light rifle also is of great interest and only about a hundred more or so. If I get the Hells Canyon I'm thinking to get the speed version of it as it's a little ligthter than the LR version. The Speed in the 28 is 6 lb 13 oz and the LR hells canyon is 7 lb 8 oz. Neither are the Mcmillon version. The only difference I can see between the speed and the LR Hells canyon is that the LR has a heavier barrel cost more and also in some calibers including the 28 the LR has a quicker twist at 8 where as the speed has a 9 twist. I believe the CA Mesa light rifle in a short action is 6.5 lbs and in Magnum is 7.3 lbs if I recall correctly. So with it's carbon fiber stock etc is slightly ligher than the Hells Canyon for what it's worth. [/QUOTE]
