I was wondiring if any of you got some reload data for the Hawk Precision Bullets (hawkprecisionbullets.com). I've looked everywere and can't find any, also it's for .270.

Thanks in Adv. 270hunter

Hawk does not publish a reloading manual or post reloading data on their website. Your best bet is to pick an equal weight bullet from the Nosler or Hornady Reloading Manuals and just start at the start load and work up for best accuracy at a safe velocity.

I know it sounds like I am a smart arse when saying this, do your homework. There is only one way to get a custom load for 'your rifle' with premium bullets and that is do the loading in powder weight steps then hit the range with your chronograph and shoot groups till you find the best load. That is better than asking for someone elses load in their rifle and hoping that the load is good in your rifle. More likely than not it will not the the best load for 'your rifle'.
