I was doing inventory yesterday and ran across 2 unopened boxes of speer 145 gr boattails and 3 unopened pounds of N560 and got to thinking. Oughtta make a good combo for deer/antelope. What kind of speeds does it give you in the 270?Works great in my 270 Winchester. Nosler has data for it with 160 definitely worth a try.
Good luck and shoot straight y'all
Sounds good. Hate to let powder and bullets just take up space on the shelf.63gr and a speed of 2970fps with the 145gr pill is possible with lowish pressure and good case fill. This is with 24 inch barrel.
Thanks for the reply.This one is a 26" barrel Christensen. Unfortunately the chamber and throat are saami and the 168s put alot of bullet below the neck into the powder column. I believe the midweights are gonna be my best bet until I can find a smith to lengthen the throat. N560 looks to fall in the IMR 7828 and Re23 neighborhood so I thought it would be more popular in this application but have'nt found much info in my search.I've used N160 in a .284/184gr hybrid and could easily get 2950fps in a 30" barrel. With the double based N560 you should easily get plenty of velocity in a much shorter barrel.
I have a pound or so of that as well. How do the two compare for accuracy and velocity?I use it as well as n565
If you are truly a coonass and still live in Sout Looziana, I can help you out with some RL-23 or N160. I live in Lafayette.Thanks for the reply.This one is a 26" barrel Christensen.
