Looking at making barnes lrx 129g home loads for my tikka 270, what’s best power people found to use with it cheers

Rs60 works fine, a mate is running that but I’ve still got lots of r/l 17 so I’m using that up and it works a treat to

Tried with any vit power?

 

[Sakoodin1]

I don’t really use bit mate no

 

[reelme]

Rs60 or Hunter

 

[sundog]

I use Vihtavuori N-160 in my 270 reloads. Works very well

 

[takbok]

Hunter, N160 or N165 will work well

RS60 literally IS RL17
Nitrochemi make it and sell it to Alliant




RS70 also good




For Viht and 129gr Barnes try N160/550/150

 

[paul o']

N160 54.56gr or follow Edd's Q books data best advice.

I use the 129LRX over the top of 60gn N560. Doing around 3100fps. They are an excellent bullet.

I also have had good results with N560 but never bothered going as hard as that, didn’t need to!

I wasn't planning or aiming for that speed, jist happened to be a flat spot in velocity there.
I use the same bullet in 6.5 at 2800 and it works. 160gn offering in the 7PRC goes nicely at 3k.
