[QUOTE="idefendem, post: 2017274, member: 51933"] The answer is, of course, to shoot the bullet your gun "likes the best." I have 5 270's in various makes. (I am an unabashed gunaphile) Each gun has its own "best" bullet and load. The 270 is famous for what it does with the 130grain. All of my 270's (1:10 twist) like 130's; they like flat base more than boat tails. Meaning that as a group they are easier to dial in with flat-based bullets, but they all will absolutely shoot boat tails-it just takes longer to find the sweet spot. I am a reloader so I can play with seating depths, powders, and a whole range of little things that the retail shooter cannot. I have shot a lot of different 140's and a few 150's, again, easier to dial in 140's compared to 150's. RL22 shoots well for me, so does H4831. "I love the smell of R22 in the morning, etc..."
