Just picked up a new Savage 12FVSS heavy barreled 270 WSM with the new accu-trigger. Anyone have any experience with this gun and caliber?

Thanks, I'm forced to use factory ammunition for next month's antelope hunt and I'd like to now which brand has the best velocities with the Nosler bullets.

I've settled on the 150 grain Partition factory load from Federal. 4/8 - 5/8 groups at 100yards. Cow elk and antelope beware.

I don't have a Savage, but I do have a Win in 270WSM. I've been constantly amazed with this rifle. I currently have the following loads for it:
90gn Sierra HP using 57.5gn of Varget
140AB using 61.5gn of RL19
150 PTG & 160gn PT using 59.gn of H4831SC.
All shoot sub-MOA, usually around .5 or smaller.

GOod luck developing your loads and on your hunt.
