Just started working on a load with a 140NP in my 270. Velocities and accuracy look really promising. 56-58gr seems to be the sweet spot but still tinkering with it. Getting anywhere from 3100 - 3200fps in a 24" barrel at MOA. That's WSM territory! RL23 advertises temp stability as well so that's a bonus. Any other experience out there? Really curious.

I tested RL23 for temp stability in a Tikka 7mm Mag

Average velocity of six rounds :

-15c 2892 fps
+13c 2890 fps
+29c 2884 fps
 
I havent used RL23 yet, but I just tested some RL22 under a 150SST. Going from 2900 fps (54.5gr) to 3090 fps (58.7gr - hornady max load). Accuracy seemed to be at 3040 fps and 57.5gr of powder. Testing some more shortly for seating depth - once my accuracy load is found Ill do a temp stability test on them.
