Quickload data

#1 Post by Provider »

Hi all

Would it be possible for someone to run some details of a load for me through your Quickload programme (or similar) and let me know the resulting velocity.

Hornady .277 130gr SP Interlock #2730
52.5 gr Hodgdon H4350
Federal 210 primer
Norma brass
C.O.L 3.180"
Sako 85 20" barrel

Thank you in advance.

.270 Winchester?
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

The COL at 3.180" seems a little short, this is the QL prediction for information only and I would always suggest working up to be on the safe side, also QL3.6 used will not take the primers into account

Cartridge : .270 Win. (SAAMI)
Bullet : .277, 130, Hornady SST InterLock 27302
Useable Case Capaci: 58.535 grain H2O = 3.801 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.180 inch = 80.77 mm
Barrel Length : 20.0 inch = 508.0 mm
Powder : Hodgdon H4350

Predicted data by increasing and decreasing the given charge,
incremented in steps of 0.381% of nominal charge.
CAUTION: Figures exceed maximum and minimum recommended loads !

Thanks Ovenpaa

The COL was taken from Hodgon powder tub. The interlock ring sits just at case mouth so looks ok. My next step it to increase COL anyway.

Thanks again for your help
