    If you have a look on long range shooting, you will find info on the matrix 165gr .277 Vld, , I still have 300 odd from when I wanted to play with them, never got round to it after purchasing a M70 in .264 win and .270wsm, the .264win shoot so well, I just sold the .270WSM,
    Should be pretty close for your purposes, but back data off a bit, and build up carefully.
    I know they wouldn't stable is a 270 win, with a 1-10, but will in a 270 WSM, exact words were push em hard,
    Lilga I think, ? did a special run of 1-8 twist 270 barrels, I know at least one other USA manufacture has .277 with a faster twist, I looked into it a few years back. when I was keen on the matrix bullets,
    It will probably be easier to just do a 280 or 280AI,
    I like odd ball calibers,(.17 fireball, vartarg, 6x45, .264 win,300H&h, 358 win) but it isn't always the best, fastest and cheapest, way to get to the target.
