4 loads for development and then a deer with the 5th. That's a great use of components and they will last a long time that way! That 250 gr Sierra looks really good, the 225 gr 358 performs very similar.
Wish I still had the brochure that showed a line up of all their loads. I would imagine you shot their 175 gr version in your 7mm RM that looks just like that. I believe they made a 150 gr PSP in 7mm too. We used the 303 British 180 gr KKSP factory loads as well.
A clean little Baikal MP18 M-M 410 shotgun. I had an older Baikal 12 gauge that weighed 5 lbs and kicked like a mule so I reluctantly sold it. Have been casually looking for a replacement and finally found this one. Really happy to have found it.
Also some older stock 270 160 gr gr Partition's...
Welcome to the forum, you have good taste in cartridges! I've had a 260 since it was introduced in 1997 and love it. I'm with Jim on this one on starting with the 120 gr Ballistic Tip. We load that bullet in my wife's 6.5x55 and it's awesome for deer. Powders in the 4350 burn rate are excellent...
The 270 Bee has the case capacity to push those long bullets fast. Should be awesome performance with reasonable recoil. Such a sleeper round that has great potential.
Thanks gentlemen that is a lot of great info and will help immensely. Really helps when you don't have any experience with them. I'll keep this up to date. We pick our own Christmas presents and this is what I would like.
Lots of great people on this site, it's honestly the best hunting forum...
