[QUOTE="Andy S., post: 4166849, member: 131"] From my years of reading posts in this forum, I [u]know[/u] some of you guys are top notch on reloading, so chime in and give me your advice. 1. I will be reloading .270 and .270 wsm loads for hunting in west Tennessee. Most of my shots will be less than 200 yards and I am more interested in accuracy than speed, although both will be fine if that is possible. What are some of your recommended hunting loads for these two calibers? I have a Barnes, Nosler and Speer reloading manual, but wanted to hear from you guys. 2. How important is having the [u]exact brass[/u] and [u]exact primer[/u] that a load calls for? The reason I ask this is I have a .270 recipe from a manual that calls for Remington brass, but I cannot find it anywhere in America at the moment. It also recommended Remington 9 1/2 primers, which I have on hand, but was wondering if they would work with Winchester or Federal brass. I have Winchester and Federal NEW brass for the .270 loads, but didn't know if I could switch out components and it still be safe, and if so, would it affect accuracy any? We can start with this discussion and see where it goes. Thanks in advance for your assistance, I very much appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
