Heading out soon to try out some loads I made up for my wife. 150gr Hornady sst's backed with IMR4350 and WLR's. I hope they work out for her.

I'm interested in how the SST's perform, as I couldn't get them to shoot accurately & consistently in the .270.

Let us know how many grains of 4350 worked best. Will you be able to chronograph?

unfortunatly I do not have access to a chrono, I would love to get one. I will let you know how the test loads go. I hope I have better luck with these then I did with my 30-30 loads I made up recently. That thing was all over the place.
