Title: Sweet load for the 270 WSM
Post by: Archery King on April 11, 2009, 02:27:23 PM

Just thought i would share my sucsess i had with this load   61 gr. of IMR4350 shooting a 130gr. swift scirocco.          My wimchester mod. 70 shot a five shot group inside of an inch with this.  Blew me away didn't no i could even make a rifle shoot that good.  I would love to hear of other good loads you guys might have.   :)   :IBCOOL:

i shoot nearly the same load and I also like it. I shoot 140 grain accubonds. I am thinking about changing though since I am having a ton of trouble finding 4350. I think I am going to change to reloader 17. I guess it is a new powder formulated for short magnums.

The R17 is also temp insensitive according to Alliant.
