AZBob Report post Posted May 17, 2023 My grandson has a cow elk tag and he will be using my lightweight .270. He is a little recoil-shy with standard factory loads. Anyone have a couple boxes of the lighter loads available? I can't seem to find any in stock. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZBob Report post Posted May 17, 2023 I haven't reloaded in probably 25 years, and didn't load .270 back then. I'm fine with factory loads in my .270, just looking for something with a little less pop for my grandson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joohnnybgood Report post Posted May 17, 2023 Ok. Reason I'm asking is because you can load some 110-130 grain reduced recoil rounds yourself. If you would like me to load some for you or your Grandson please let me know. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AZBob Report post Posted May 17, 2023 Wow! I appreciate the offer. Let's see if someone has some factory loads left over from their kiddos first. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thegunsmith2506 Report post Posted May 17, 2023 I shoot the 110gr accubonds in my .270wsm. They hold together really well and might work good as a low recoil option if you have some loaded for him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just let me know and I can make some up for you to shoot, see how they group, and how the recoil is for him. It'll recoil like a .243 or 300 Savage-ish...somewhere around there.
