[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 71326, member: 10"] Boman, Richard is waiting on some heavier 0.030" jackets that he is going to use to build some 150 to 160 gr Flat Base Bonded Cores in 257 and I believe he will be building a 170 or 180 gr of the same design for the 270. Being shorter in length I would suspect that the heavier FB bullets will allow nearly the same velocity as the ULD bullets. Only issue will be the thicker jacket which always increases pressure some. For elk I would recommend a bonded core with a 0.030" jacket with these bullet weights. YOu coudl go to the 0.040" jackets if you knew you were going to be taking shots under 200 yards but I suspect the 0.030" jackets will serve all needs better. Good SHooting!! Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
