Load date for 270 wsm

mwd571

I have purchased a new Savage 10 GXP3 in 270 wsm. After shooting several boxes of factory ammo I would like to work up reloads, where is a good place to start, powder?, cases?, bullets?, primers?

Thanks

mwd571,

Welcome!

Here is one of the topics already posted on the forums:

Other resources are the Hornady and Nosler reloading manuals.

Then there is a forum devoted to the WSM's:
