270 Win Hammer Bullets load data

[archerynut21]

Does anyone have any load data for the 124 grain Hammer Hunters in a 270 Win?

There is a very comprehensive, up to date list of hammer load data over on the long range hunting site

Will 1-10” spin it?

Will 1-10” spin it?

I believe that's why Steve cut the bullet. Heavier than the 117, but stable in a 10 twist. mtmuley

Has anyone played with the 124 HH yet?

Looking at Nosler load data, I’d start with H4831 or H4350

I’ve been on the hunt for H4350 to no avail. I have some IMR4831 and was thinking of starting at 55gr. Does that seem reasonable? I’m very green at reloading so any thoughts are very appreciated.

Have any RL-17? mtmuley

Unfortunately I don’t. I noticed it referenced on the hammer forum as well as the H4350. Have you had good luck with it?

Works great with the 117's. I have no doubt it would work with the 124. RL-19 would also. IMR 4831 will work also. I have been trying to find my data. mtmuley

I haven’t used IMR 4831, but I believe it’s a fair bit faster burning than H4831. I would probably start lower.

Awesome. Thanks for the advice guys!

I've been working up a load with the 124 HH's. Not the most popular powder, but I've found a good combo with the following:

Browning X-Bolt Pro 1-10 twist
Norma URP 59.6gr @ 3330 fps
Hornady brass
CCI 200 primer
.020 off lands
60.8 gr is where I found pressure

Sub 1 inch from a rifle that I have been considering throwing a new barrel on because it's just awful. Very disappointed in Browning.

Tried Reloder 19 but no where near the velocity I wanted before running into compressed loads. I would definitely stick with that 4350 burn rate.
