Any of y’all have a pet starter load for a 270 wsm in 130, 140, or 150 grain bullets?
I’m getting about an inch group at 200 yards in my Sako with 130 grain pills, but would like to get it down to 3/4-5/8” if possible.

Also, I’ve got a crapload of 150 grain Speers, and would like to get a good starter load if any of y’all have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Butch

If it was me and I was getting one inch groups at 200 yards I wouldn't change a thing with that load.

Did you do a ladder test?
