Testing .270 Winchester Handloads with Model 70 Winchester ~ Very Nice!

This video provides a methodical test of various .308 Winchester bullet types against steel plates of increasing thickness, from 1/4 inch to 1 inch. The host, demonstrating high authority in amateur ballistic testing, uses a custom rifle and MagnetoSpeed V3 chronograph to record velocities and penetration depths. Key findings highlight how bullet construction and weight significantly impact performance, with specialized AP rounds showing superior penetration compared to standard hunting and match bullets.

This video investigates the impact of barrel length on 357 Magnum velocity using a 3-inch and a 4 5/8-inch revolver. Chronograph data was collected for various bullet weights (110gr to 180gr) from different manufacturers and handloads. The analysis suggests that the difference in velocity between these two barrel lengths is not as significant as one might expect, with variations often being within a few hundred feet per second.

This video demonstrates the exceptional accuracy of a Winchester Model 70 Featherweight rifle chambered in .270 Winchester at 500 yards. Using 130-grain Berger ammunition and a Vortex 6-24x scope, the rifle consistently achieved sub-MOA groups, specifically 2-inch groups at the extended distance. The shooter highlights the rifle's performance with precise, repeatable impacts on a steel gong.

This video compares the accuracy of Wolf 7.62x39mm steel-cased ammunition against hand-loaded brass-cased ammunition in an AK-47 at 100 yards. The test utilized a red dot sight, and the results indicated a slight improvement in group size with the hand-loaded brass ammunition, though not a significant enough difference to warrant using premium ammo in an AK for this purpose. The presenter suggests saving higher-quality ammunition for bolt-action rifles.

This video demonstrates accurate shooting of a Ruger American rifle in .270 Winchester at 500 yards. The shooter utilizes Federal 130 grain soft point ammunition, achieving impressive accuracy for the rifle's price point. The demonstration highlights the effectiveness of Kentucky windage for compensating for wind and distance, even with a basic scope setup.
