[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2017421, member: 109862"] hey! Big 270 fan here, that and a 300 win mag do all my hunting with me. Mine also has a 22 inch barrel, they all have 10 twists unless it’s custom built You’re not the first person to find eld x bullets hit and miss in a given caliber. People and their rifles love them or hate them. I’ve had very good accuracy and terminal performance with plain vanilla hornady interlock bullets, 130 and 150 flat base, 140 btsp. question: where abouts do you live and hunt? If it’s in a place that doesn’t experience huge differences in temperature between seasons I must recommend Rl22 powder. Max possible velocity, accurate, BUT it is very sensitive. I’ve stopped using it for that reason. I live in northern Saskatchewan (just had a decent snowstorm here) and worked up a load that showed no pressure signs in January at -25 celcius or something typical like that, 140 btsp at 3080 FPS, and in June at around+25celcius it seized my bolt and was over 3200. currently planning to try rl23 soon!
