Best guess 270 win with 130 accubond.......

Yeah, that'll do, Charlie. Not bad at all.

Thank you Mike. That includes my cold-clean barrel sighter as well (on the bottom of the group).

 

[DrMike]

All the more impressive. Such groups are certainly soothing for us older shooters.

What are the FPS? On that load.

Did not chrony those. 130 AB,s went 2960 with the same load and powder lot.

Wow! Great shooting 270's here! Deerslayers, all of them.

I got 2980 fps at 10 feet on Chrono. Call it 3000 fps because that is what it is in my barrel at 65*F. I was expecting about 100 fps more with Fed 215 MM primer?

Charlie that is within 1/2gr of my load :wink: I put it over my chrony @ just over 3000fps.
On the good days I can get 1/2"MOA.

Blessings,
Dan

Me also Dan, but mine is a custom Super Grade, Model 70 with French walnut and the hand of Jules as the stock maker. Despite being old, it has always shot like this!

Another powder I find works rather well is IMR-4831. Here is one of those small groups I get sometimes. 3000 fps with 57 gr. The bullet is 140 BT,s.
