Speed too slow, help!

Jack used 62 grains of H-4831 in a Winchester case with the 130gr. Nobler partition. He said 60 gr. Was the max. with the Remington case.
 
58 to 60 gns of surplus 4831 was considered to be a good zone with 130 gn bullets.
i used a lot of it at 59 gns, giving around 3050 in a brno 600 24"barrel, and just over 3000 in a 22" rem 700.
it was in fact the go to powder for 130 & 150 gn 270 bullets.
modern h4832 (ar2213sc) is equivalent.
bruce.
 
I took the chronographer out the other day and here are the results:
.270 Win
Win Large Rifle Primer
58gr H4831
140gr TSX TB
COAL 3.245
22" barrel on a Model 700
2900 fps
No pressure signs and sub 1 MOA! Fast enough too (IMO). Faster than I thought I would get with that barrel and still 2gr below the max recommended by Barnes. Mission accomplished.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
