Whitetail deer mostly, and maybe the occasional wild hog!

I just bought a Winchester 70 in 270 WSM and was trying to get a good idea of what to feed it! I've got some 130 gr PT, 140 gr BT, 140 gr Hornady SPBT, and 150 gr Speer HCSP. I've got a pretty good assortment of powders: H1000, Hybrid 100V, H4831, H4350, H414, IMR4350, W760, and RL22. What...

I don't think it's too early! I've got a rifle at Pac-Nor getting re-barreled and I've been loading break-in loads since mid July!

Go with the Savage. You will be alot happier. They are just as accurate as the Sub-MOA vangaurds, and IMO are a better quality rifle.

I load 44.0gr of VARGET on the 165 AB with excellent results! It is not the max, but it is very accurate in all .308 rifles that I have shot.

Looking for at least 300 165 gr NBT or BST, seconds would be fine.
