A long, long time ago I was testing my favorite 308 mid-range load in my 40XB match rifle with different primers. Groups were generally at or under an inch at 200 yards, until I tried some Winchester LR primers and the groups swelled to over 2 MOA.

What bullet? JD338 The same as in the title, 160 gr. 7mm NAB

My 280 AI has an 8 twist 28" Pac-Nor and l use 63.0 RL-25 with a muzzle velocity of 3085 fps.

"Fridays with Frank" on YouTube. While the traffic stops are selected for the channel, the interaction with the drivers are unscripted.

Running the pressures of the 30-06 up to those for a 270 makes the 30-06 performance shine. I can get the 180 NAB leaving a 22" barrel at ~2850 fps with several powders.

When it comes to hunting, I'm pretty much one load for the duration of hunt as reducing variables is important to me. That's not to say that I only have one hunting load for a particular rifle, as different game often requires different bullet construction and weight.

This chambering came about when I mis-cut a 22-250 AI chamber on a 26" 9 twist barrel I had. It was a lemons to lemon-aid undertaking so to say. I had a bag of 70 gr. RDF seconds that I decided to use for load development, as I was unable to find an accurate load for them in my 223 and 224...

My experience with 130 gr. bullets in a 270, the powder sweet spot for performance are powders are: H4350, RL-17, RL-19. My 270 has a 24" barrel and all three of these powders deliver accuracy in my rifle and with higher velocity than H4831 generates. If you're not getting the accuracy you are...

RL-17 makes my 270 rock with 130 gr. bullets. You have plenty of pressure headroom to increase the amount of RL-17 and perhaps going forward you will find the magic point of power and accuracy.

I'm a Speer Gold Dot guy, but it's nice to see that there are other choices that perform well.

Be sure to try the 40 gr Nosler VG and 300MP powder in your Hornet. It's magic in mine. John

I'm seeing H4350 locally for far less than that. I'm wondering if the manufacturers are having retailers "bid" on available powder and some pay elevated prices just to have something on the shelf to sell.

There are some impressive YouTube videos of the weather available for viewing.

If there are "seconds" for someone living in Oregon, please let me know. John

I have a 35 Whelen, 35 Whelen AI, a 375 Whelen AI, and a 9.3x63mm all on Mauser actions. Of those, the 9.3 is my go to rifle. Just sayin... John

Let's not all jump on him and beat him down..... On second thought, that's exactly what he deserves.

All this high tech.... My old school barrel bobed and suppressed 581 Remington toys with MOA accuracy off the bench at 100 yards with Norma TAC 22 subsonic on a calm day and even better with R50. Not saying this is the be all 22 rimfire, but that old rifle can stack them into a tight group...

I have only found speed with these bullets, the accuracy is marginal.

If I push it hard, I can get a 150 LRAB going 2700 fps out of the 20" barrel of my 700Ti
