OK, I was slapped back to reality last night as I started testing loads for bear hunt in 3 weeks. After perfectin the 90 gr I am at step one for the 150 Nosler Partition. Anyone load for this gunn using these bullets and I4350 or H4831sc have perfected loads for it.
I have plenty of other load choices, but was hoping someone loads for ths gun and can cut my tsting considerbly, especially cause NP come in 50 pack and r expensive.
Oh I shot 48, 48.5, & 49 gr 4350 and was way off.

Rusty - 3 weeks is not much time. Have you ever shot 150 gr bullets out of your 270? Did they shoot well? Are these Black bear, and where at? If not, and you are looking for a good bullet in the 130 - 140 gr range you could giveBarnes a try or Nosler Accubonds.Honestly, I've tried Partitions in 270 and a few 30 cal rifles and never had good accuracy results with them. I guess it just may have been bad luck on my part cause they seem to shoot well for a lot of folks.

I did more tests and 50 gr I4350 seems to be very accurate at this point. Just around 1" but 3 out of 5 were touching in the bull. I know I pulled one of the others and the wind was a blowin' that day too.

I had some decent luck with 150 NP's but the Federal Factory loads grouped better than my best loading so far. I dunno what they used but Id like to find out.

I was using the H4831 on them but I havent tried a lot of different combos with that bullet. I got a little less than an inch with it but the Fed Premium done better.

Federal whats? Lots of federal laod out there.

You R lucky to have a factory load group so well.

The Federal Premium Vital-ShokNosler Partition150 grainers. Load number is P270E. In its defense the 270 I am loading for will group anything fairly good with the exception of Speer 150's.
