.270win with RL 19?

[lyallpeder]

I have a box of hornady .270Win 140gr BTSP, and a pound of RL 19. I have searched the internet and the manual I have only to find nothing about this bullet/powder

Anyone have any recipes whey are willing to share?

Thank you,
Lyall

What manual ? Hornady #8 edition has it listed starting load 51gr with a max of 57. standard large rifle primer being used.

Tried the RL 19 in various charges/combos and never did find what I was looking for. IMHO the RL 22 in 60.0Gr charge with a 215M primer will provide consistent results in most rifles, I have given this to three or four friends with 270's and it worked well. The bullets were 140 gr accubonds.

I don't recommend this for your gun but in my Sako I went all the way to 59gr of RL 19 with a 130 hotcore and got great groups. I would say like the book to start at 55 and work up. Might get to 57grs. But if you got all that powder try it. Good luck.

Thank you I might try 22 next.
