I do not see data for this combination at either Hodgdon or Nosler web sites.

Has anyone tried this? Willing to share data?

Thanks

I've loaded my .270 with 130 gr. SSTs and the top Hodgdens load of 55gr. I went up 2-3 gr. with no problems and it was very accurate.

Win. pre 64 M70 24" bbl.

Hipshoot

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like a promising combination.

I'm using the Nosler 130 grain Accubond bullet. Not the same as the SST but fairly close. I note in the Hodgdon data they list a max of 56.5 grains for the Barnes 130 TSX and a max of 55.5 grains for the Hornady Spire Point.

I'm loading for an Interarms Mark X with a fairly long throat. I'm still .100 off the lands at max OAL for the magazine length.

I'm going to start with 53 grains and work up to 56 grains as a first test.

I too have loaded it in my daughter's 270 Win with 130 Accubond and a son-in-law's 300 WSM with 165 TTSX Barnes. Both shot well ...and as I recall, excellent velocities were attained.

I can look up her load if you haven't got yours done already.

I don't have a load worked up yet.
Any data you can share for the 270 Win with the 130 Accubond and Staball 6.5 would be appreciated.

Thanks

Win case, Win LR primer, 3.460OACL (40 thousandths jump), 130 Nosler Accubond, 55.5 grains Staball 6.5.

I have the recorded velocity somewhere but it might take too long to find it. I didn't have it recorded on her ammo box.

Having a good deal of old WW2 4831, a marriage made in Heaven for the 270 thats all I use and get more velocity and less pressure than anything else out there and accurate. down side? grain cutting requires weighing each charge and thats a pain, but it is what it is..If in a hurry I use RL-22.
