I've been working with Steve for awhile to make a bullet for my sons 270 wsm. I wanted heavy but he promised me that 117 gr dead blows would do the trick with 58 gr of W760. He was very patient and knowledgeable and I decided to take a chance. He always took the time talked to me without being pushy or in a rush to get off and answered all of my questions. He has earned my business and respect, a great guy. After loading some bullets up to his recommendations, I didn't even get to play with seating depths or run a ladder test as it shot under an inch @ 200 yds so I dialed in the scope and sent 3 more to confirm. Over several month my son shot over 10 goats and 1 sheep so far and they all fell instantly. Most shots under 300 yds with the ram at 566 yds again without taking a step. They work as advertised and I cannot say I will try more "light" bullets but I wouldn't mind building a faster twist 270 for my son using heavier hammers 140+ grains.
