You had me going there for a moment! I was thinking why didn't that sob call or text me, instead of posting it on the forum, LOL. Well, I'm retired and don't even know what day it is, thanks rjm for the reminder.

Welcome to the forum. I don't have my 270wsm anymore, but when I did the heaviest bullets I loaded were 150g ABLR. I used RL26, Magpro and IMR 7828, with CCI LRM primers. Retumbo and Magnum should work well too.

Lots of good info above! 115g BT or Partitions and 110g AB will work great. I'm shooting them in my 9 twist 25-06 and the all shoot very well. If you need a mono lead-free bullet try Hammer bullets, I'm shooting 90g Absolute Hammers at 3600 to 3700fps and they are amazing. Accurate, easy to...

You might try some VihtaVuori powder. My old Speer manual shows 3n37 powder used with 125g bullets. Not sure if it's clean burning, but at least it's available. I've started using VihtaVuori powders in a couple rifle calibers with excellent results.

That's probably why it's cleaner because it burns hotter?? If I remember correctly, Universal was little cleaner than Bullseye .

Yeah, I don't think any of them were real clean. I believe Titegroup is cleaner burning, but I never tried it, "IF" it's available. Glad I have a lot of Bullseye and Universal on hand. Good luck!

I always used Bullseye or Unique for many years. Also used Universal.

We have a heatwave going on here in the west, yesterday's it hit 100 degrees and only cooled off to 70 overnight. Supposed to be hotter the next 3 days. It should be cool and rainy this time of year here in the central coastal mountains of CA.

I have that same Lyman book from the mid 70's, but it doesn't look nice like NYDAN's. All my old loading manuals are pretty well "used".

We have had 4 seasons in the last 3 weeks. 3 weeks ago it was in the mid 80s. 2 weeks ago it rained 4 inches in 3 days, than drop to 32 degrees. Last week it was in the high 80s and low 90s. This week there is a wind advisory and 60. It's difficult to get acclimated to anything.

Excellent! Those Absolute Hammers are amazing, especially when pushed fast.

Nice rifle, Noah!

When I had my 270wsm it shot 130g Etips over RL26 best.

Thanks
