What brand bushings do you use? The one I have is an uncoated redding. It's what came in the used wilson die when I bought it.
I use both Redding and Wilson.
My fired brass is measuring right at .270
Should measure from the loaded neck diameter to figure out bushing size. Good place to start would be .003 below loaded neck diameter and work from there up or down to find the happy spot for the load.
They are measuring at .2685" loaded.
O K start with .265 and see how it works. Be good to have .264 .265 .266 bushings on hand.
Very interesting.
There’s that 324 bushing I love
Well shot a couple groups this morning with my boy. I'm really liking the 34.2gr blc2 .010" load. But I wanted to try some cci 400 primers as I have a bunch of them it did not like them lol. I also just had to try my favorite Leverevolution powder, well.....it shot pretty dang good and added another 100fps. I did shoot one of the most unique groups I've ever shot with one of the cci 400 loads. Here are some pictures. 
My wife just picked up a pound of n540 for me to try and she found some fed gold match primers also! I have never used the vit powders.
In the process of swapping over to V-V with all my rifles. So far I am pleased with results. Mostly staying with the one series rather than the five.

Your wife sounds like mine. She loves going into the shop (we need a licence over here) and the funny looks she gets when asking for very specific reloading components! I think 99% of the customers are male.
Well, I loaded up a few rounds with the n540. I had 15 bullets left so I loaded 5 weights .2 apart with 3 rounds each. Only shooting 3 round groups almost felt like cheating lol but I managed this group. Now I think it's time to load up a bunch and go shoot some chucks or squirrels or steel lol.
What ya think?

Looking good
I found a really good way to measure my groups. I fold all the petals in from the back and then put a piece of clear packing tape over them. It makes it nice and flat and easy to measure.
Oh and I just finished loading up 100 of them. Now to go shoot some steel.
