I use 70 gr Magpro powder, 140 gr AccuBond, Fed 215 primer and Winchester brass that has had the flash hole deburred. My Savage shoots this load into .25-.50 MOA at 3150 fps. This particular rifle likes a COAL of 2.830 with this bullet. I shot this group tuesday.

"Short" answer for reloading data: http://shortmags.org/shortmags/downloads.htm
Sorry for the pun. Based on personal experience:
Excellent powders: VihtaVuori N-165, Reloder 19, IMR-4350
Good powders: H-4831, Accurate XMR-4350, Reloder 22
Yet to try: Accurate Magpro, Ramshot Magnum
Excellent Bullets: Nosler AccuBond 140 gr, Ballistic Tip 140 gr, Sierra 90 gr HP
Good Bullets: Nosler 130 gr Solid Base and/or Ballistic Tip, Nosler 130 gr Partition
I have had the best most consistent results with the Nosler 140 gr AccuBond bullet, 65.0 gr of Vihta Vuori N-165 and Federal 210 primer. Have had very good results also with Reloder 19 and Winchester WLRM primer with 130 gr Noslers. IMR-4350 has also given good results with the lighter bullets. I believe that most .270WSM rifles will shoot decent with pretty much any slow burning powder and quality bullets, and truly outstanding with a finely tuned load. Have fun and let us know how it goes!
