Can you shot Hornadays 270 win "light Mag" round in a regular 270 rifle? or is there a mag rifle suted for this? also what differance is there. how do you rate them?
You sure can! It gives enhanced ballistics at the standard SAAMI pressures. It uses very slow powders in quantities no ordinary handloader can get into the case! I don't know if they put the powder in before putting the necks on the cases like the Brits used to do with Cordite, but they have a "special loading technique". If you pull a bullet on one of these cartridges and dig out all the powder, you can't get it all back in!!
