.270 Report post Posted July 5, 2006 corky, i shoot a 140 gr btsp hornadys with as much h4350 as it'll handle. and i load the bullet really long. i shoot an old model 70 and it allows for that kinda load. it won't work in most newer rifles. throat is too short. i'm sure there are some better powders now, but it works good for me.

billrquimby Report post Posted July 7, 2006 We left Greer this morning and drove through the heaviest gully washer I've seen in my lifetime in Arizona. It hit us about ten miles past Seneca Lake and continued almost all the way to Globe. So much water was falling that dozens of drivers pulled off the road. Those of us who continued drove under 10 mph most of the way. BillQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
