270 wsm 130 gr Berger help

[Mt.Boy]

I usually use 130 accubonds in my 270 wsm. I haven’t been able to find any for at least 2 years now. I found a few boxes of 130 Berger classic hunters to try. But can’t find any load data on them. My Berger book only has the 130 vld. Any one use this combo or suggest any loads. I have rl26, rl22 h4831sc, imr 7828 h4350. On hand thanks

I know you are using a 270 WSM but 60.9 gr RL 22 is very accurate in my 6.5/270 WSM with 142 gr SMK using a Fed 215M primer so I would work around that charge.

Look at the Swift Scirocco 270/130gr.

A little pricey but not that much more than the AB. Order straight from them.

Yes, 26" on my Browning Eclipse. 65gr is the max & most accurate of the few different loads I tried.

68 gr rl26 is not a max load, according to alliant. I use fed lr mag primers.
