I've just acquired a BDL in 17 centerfire and would appreciate input on reloads, as I've no experiencewith this cartridge. The ballistics are intriguing, if not the ballistic coefficient.

I agree with Caleb. The Les Baer is hard to put down.

I shoot 100 days and carry another 100 days or more. Nearly all is done on the farm where I have an 800 yard range capacity. I've been shooting handguns more of late, but will always remain a rifle nut.

Anyone have experience with the Federal Hypervelocity 110 gr 270 cartridge with respect to accuracy and barrel life?gun)

22 inch barrel

Do you hunt with handguns?gun)

I did see a max load of 44.6 gr of Varget with a listed velocity of 3,050 fps which I'm assuming would be at or close to max, if not a bit past. I've never loaded that hot. Didn't see any accuracy data for it. Seems to me that your load would be hard to beat

gun)sounds like a great load. Many thanks

For sure. Thanks

I recently picked up a Winchester M70 Featherweight in 7mm-08. It shoots well with 140 gr Accubonds using Varget. I started at 41.5 gr and worked up in 1/2 gr increments. Haven't used RL- 17.
