.270 TH😂 Ladders

[Muddyboots]

Ok, waiting for temps to drop below 90 to finish the main 156HH velocity but decided to see exactly what other options are there to try.
Have:
165ABLR
175TGK
150ABLR
150AB
165Matrix-maybe enough for ladder.
160Partition which really intrigues me
145ELDX which I have already seen excellent results in my ancient Savage110C that I rebarreled with 24" Shaw.

So anything else out there that makes sense for normal .270TH.

Normal......? This is NOT your granddads ole 270. This is THORS HAMMER! LOL

When I get my barrel back, 277 1-9" twist 30" finished length in 270 Bee, I really want to give those 165 ABLR pills a good run. Had excellent results with the 150 ABLR in it prior to sending it off to be cryo'd, now due to more COVID idiots that can't stay home, I have no idea when it will be back.
I lopped 2" from this barrel and re-crowned just prior to sending it off.
I'd like to see some numbers on the 165's if you can have time to test those.

Cheers.

You didn't mention the 170 berger or the 175 matrix.

What is this .270 you talk about?

 

[Quintus]

Maybe give the 139AH a run? At 3300FPS could be a little Zues lightning behind Thors Hammer.

Already did the 170 EOL and it shot very well. Topped out at 3060 or so but I did not load high enough ladder to reach visible pressure like ejector etc and was satisfied with velocity achieved anyway. Check out Velocity Pool thread near end shows target with the 170 EOL.

The 175 Matrix I thought was not available but just saw thread they are back in business so worth a looksee.

Well I was almost toughing 3300 with the 156HH so unless I could exceed that by a bunch not sure worth it.

Got some loaded up waiting for <90 degrees! Looks good for next week!

Just a .270 Win in 1:8, 27", 5R, Light Palma 0.290 free bore added to allow longer higher BC heavier bullets. So far, the performance has exceeded my hopes by quite a lot! RL26 with the heavier bullets has opened my eyes and bet quite a few others on the velocities achieved. All with regular .270 Win brass. We had some fun on LRH coming up with a catchy name which turned out to be .270 Thors Hammer or .270TH.

For sure! The 1:8 twist should be ok for it! Love that BC!

Sure sounds like fun.

Yes it is seeing this performance out of a non creedmoor
