    Grab some 140 gr. Accubonds and MagPro. Work up carefully, I hit max pressure before the book max load. At that, I was still getting 3300 fps with a 26" barrel and that load was extremely accurate.

    I have a 26 inch barrel 270 wsm too and I have not found anything that is not very accurate in it.

    That load has killed instantly from 75 to 400+ yds. The Accubond is a pretty tough bullet.
