Trailrider, it looks like you found what your looking for with .030-.033 off the lands.
How many groups did you shoot? I've had rifles shoot like that and the next group would be 1.5"
Not trying to discourage you, but you need to know if the load is consistant.
Just my 2 cents. Good luck and keep shooting.

trailrider, Just wondered what your reasoning was in going with the 110 gr? As I type this I realized that the 110 TSX is probably about the same dimensions as a 130 or 140 Gr. conventional cup and core bullet. I use the 130 gr. Interlocks in my .270 Savage with great accuracy. I have a couple of boxes of 90 and 110 Gr. conventional HP but they look pretty stubby. I've never tried them.

GottaGetaGlock,
I have three groups that are consistent on differnet days and temp. I know what you mean about a good handload one day, then the next time its different.
Starting to enjoy this 270 marlin, going to test the load out to 200 & 300 yards next.
Rockydog,
I spoke to Ty at Barnes and he recommended that I try the 110 gr Tsx. He said they perform like 130gr lead bullets. I took his advise and tried the 110 gr.. I can't wait to shoot some game now to see how they perform.
Thanks guys

Trailrider, for a novice you are doing quite well. Sounds like that Marlin is a keeper. Good luck hunting, and shoot straight.
