[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 1756002, member: 60453"] You'll just have to get the load data from Nosler and try it. It won't be a barn burner for velocity, I don't think, but it will have great sectional density, and should have great penetration due to its weight. You may need a faster twist barrel, though. I would expect it to be a long for caliber bullet. And the 270 AI would be a great 500 yard and under round with that bullet weight. However, I just looked on the Nosler website and they don't list a .277 bullet of more than 160 grain weight. Their 160 grain .277 cal. bullet is a partition. That's still good for animals up to elk in size, though. [/QUOTE]
