[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 662353, member: 48043"] Hey there. I've been burning wc872 for a while in some rifles too. It burns almost exactly the same as accurate 8700, which used 86 grn on a 220. You probably won't want to go under 180-190 grn for bullet weight, as this powder wants quite a bit of load for uniformity in mid calibers-- I've used it with 160 and 175 in the 7 mag. Start down some on charge, as you may have powder that is faster than 8700. You won't get to full velocity in this cartridge with this powder, but you may get pretty good accuracy; my 270 is pitching 130 grn bullets with 68.5-69.5 gr depending on brass. It hits just under 2700 fps. 5 shot moa.. [/QUOTE]
