Has anybody loaded up some .270's with this bullet? Seems like it would be a rocker. If I can find some reloading data newer than P.O. Ackleys for 120gr bullets I am going to give them a try.
This is what I am looking for. At 6.8 velocity's this bullet is giving through and through shots on hogs. I want explosive performance in the hog with little over- penetration. Besides I am getting tired of buying this bullet for the .270, this bullet for the 6.8, these bullets for the 06 and different ones for the 300. you get the picture. Keeping velocity's down in the .270 will not be that difficult but I think it will be an excellent long range varmint round at higher velocity's. A 120gr sst at 3200-3300fps would carry up quite nicely I believe.These bullets expand extremely fast at the 6.8SPC velocities. I would think that they would expand too fast and not penetrate adaquately at the 270Win velocities unless you wanted to drop them down quite a bit. --- pruhdlr
