[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1613778, member: 48043"] Heck, I can't even get repeatable performance with the 175 eld-x in my 7stw in differing temps... doesn't matter the powder... tried retumbo and rl but settled on h50bmg after she was tossing .7 to .8" groups at 200 yards... then it cooled down and it went to hell in a handbasket. I like the older Hornady stuff, but I really don't like their tipped offerings in the bigger cartridges. My boy does well with the 143 in his creed, however. As to 270's, many of us are closet 270 shooters. I've owned three, and currently own a lh tikka that'll shoot dang well. I've only killed one critter with a 270 though, and it wasn't even my pipe. My brother was prepping to gut a deer and I had taken his rifle to safety it so I could help. I saw a deer trot in and popped it with his rifle. [/QUOTE]
