Pretty hard core over there. Even need a fal for a cap gun.

Well funnily enough 4064 is meant to go alright in it too.
Jack O'Connor had an accurate load for it before H4831 came out.
Try it out for me lol

There's a good thread on forum for 145's in 270 with quite a few different loads data in common factory rifles.

For 130s to get factory vel of 3060 fps:
2209 54-55.- 55.5 gns.
Ww760 53.5 - 55 gns
2213 58.5 - 60 gns

22 inch tubes and long throats may need the top end of the range.

24 inch tubes with custom chambers the lower end.

Based on my .270 exp.

I am after the same performance as corelokt in my .270. Was recommended the interlocks as well. I have Reloaders 26 how does that compare with 2213sc

Greetings,
The grail load for the 130 grain in the .270 is 60 grains of H4831 which is close to max. Dates from the 1950's and is still in Hodgdons data today. Work up to the velocity though.
GPM.

its tight fit to get it in a case...and a short throated rifle may be over pressure with that much...... STRANGELY the data for AR2213sc gives a lower maximum charge even though it is now the same powder

Not necessarily, I’ve used up to 63 gns of h4831 in one Rem 700 22 inch factory tubed rifle to get factory quoted 3060 fps.
PMC factory 130 loads chrono at 2850 fps.

Just highlights the early lesson learnt when starting down the reloading path. Each rifle is different so start low with powder charge. Never got past 53gns of 2209 before bolt got heavy to lift and settled on a nice accuracy node at 51gn and around 2700fps. That’s a long way from others I’ve seen.
