270 WIN & 140 gr NAB

Classic whitetail rig there. Makes ya wonder why they ever developed a new cartridge after 1960.

I used 130 SGKs over 54.5gr IMR-4350 for a decade without any issues. Didn't have a chrony then but mid-2900's estimated. When I started looking for a moose load for this rifle is when I delved into the 140gr bullets.

They were all mule deer except for one whitetail in Wyoming but no practical difference except for the ranges for the mule deer being between 100 and 350 yards in the rocky mountains.
