I shoot a 270 wsm most of the time. I decided to try the 150 grn instead of 140. the two I decided on was the berger or the nosler long range. does anyone have experience using either one of these. which one would be more accurate.
thanks

I have also gotten excellent accuracy out of my 270WSM using 150 Berger VLD's using IMR-7977. Every rifle is different so you may need to try both. My 280 Rem loves the 150 Nosler LR Accubond.
 
I just got done loading 140 gr. VLD's using 70.5 grains of Retumbo, set at 15,000's off the lands. Average speed is right at 3180 fps out of a Winchester M70 Extreme Weather rifle. Group is 5/16 inch at 100 yards. I have some loaded at 10,000's and 5,000's off the lands to see if the group will improve any, but it will be a little while before I can test them with deer season going on.
