    270 Sierra MatchKing loads?


    I have been shooting hot 130gr sierra gamekings with H4350, with decent results, as i haven't done any long range accuracy testing. However, i am going to try a set of 100 Sierra MatchKing 135gr HPBT's next, and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of any powders and charge weights for a load with optimal accuracy.

    ...I gave up on the 130gr GK's because they didn't have the knock down power of the 130gr NBT's..
    ..54.5grs of H4350 with CCI 200's.. 3/100

    Same load shoots very well in my Browning but it takes 58.5 in my Remington.

    little grave digging here. I'm looking for 1k accuracy with a stock barreled 110, The 135 smk seems like the one to try from a price point perspective(10$ less per 100 vs berger). Please share all the particulars or suggestions.

    An old accuracy load was imr 4064. Start with about 45 grains and watch for signs as you work up
    Ackley was right all along

    I load 47 grains of IMR 4064 behind a 130 GK. lights out accurate in any gun.
    The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.

    54-54.5gr of H4350 works in every .270 I have ever tried it in. Bullet doesn't seem to matter either, any 130 under 54 grains of H4350 usually shoots very very well. The Berger 130 classic hunter has been my favorite with a G1 BC of .490 it's the sleekest 130 out there.

    Another vote for H4831. Real good results with 140's and 150's.
