I am looking for some load data for these new bullets I just bought 140gr Nosler Accubonds for my 270, I usually shoot sierra 130's but thought I would try these out this year for the deer hunt. I don't have and couldn't find a nosler reloading book a the gunshop and I would like to know if anyone has some load data or a sweet load for 270 with these bullets. I have been searching around and can't find much on this. I would like to know what the C.O.L. would be and I am gonna be using IMR4350 powder with winchester primers. I was using a load of 54grains of IMR4350 and winchester primers pushing a sierra 130gr bullet
out of a 22" tube with good results, but I didn't like the way the tips crushed in the clip so I thought I'd try something new this year. Anyways if anyone could be kind enough to set me straight with the 140gr Nosler Accubond load and cartidge data, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ranger66 (newbie to the site)

Nosler 5th Edition- Fed.210 primer; IMR 4350 pwdr; start load 48.5 grains; max. load is 52.5 grains. Adjust COL to fit your rifle and magazine.

I use a long-seated 140 accubond with 60.0grs of RL-22. I get a pinch over 3000fps and it shoots 1/2 MOA at 200 and 300yds in my Berretta Mato.......DJ

That's the ticket! I just tried the Accubond with 60.0 RL-22
w-w cases and primers in my Pac-Nor'ed 700 Rem. Got well under an inch at 100 and 3056 fps av. The same load with the 130 Interbond gave 3090fps. and better accuracy. Thinking I've found something to lob at Elk and Deer. By the way, H4831 at book max. was nearly 200 fps slower in this rifle!

I also used 60.0 grs of RL 22 in Lapua cases with a Fed 210M primer. My 22" Blaser barrel may be a bit slower than those of the gentlemen above - I got an avg. MV of 2925, or something like that. Still, my load averaged in the .6s (3 shot @ 100 yds), so I left well enough alone.



Pretty long bullets. Need to be seated some way below the neck, unless you have a longer than standard magazine.

56.5 grs of H4831 SC below the 140 accubond make my .270 sing. can't wait to study the terminal ballistics of this load... 11/6 is not too far away for all of us Texas hunters.

Thanks for the info guys, it helps alot. Gonna head to the range on the weekend to work up a load.
