[QUOTE="Shortmagman, post: 338964, member: 10723"] I have tried Magpro in my 270 Winchester, with mixed results. I never was able to get the accuracy I was looking for so I gave up, despite the fact that I was getting more velocity than I had ever gotten from my Ruger 77. Many other people have gotten great velocity and accuracy with this powder so I may have given up too early. The web site lists 65 grains as a Max load with a 130 grain Nosler BT bullet and they show the velocity at over 3200 ft./sec out of a 24 inch barrel. I was able to get 3100 ft/sec with a 130 grain Hornady bullet out of my 22 inch barrel. So if you are looking for velocity I think Magpro does offer it. Also some have said that this powder likes close to max loads and it is more accurate at near max loads. Maybe that is why I did not get the accuracy I wanted since I did not work up to a max load.
