I have a Viking Armament on the way with a 1-8 twist 24" barrel. I am planning on loading up a few different bullets including the Barnes 129gn LRX, 133 hammers, 140 hammers, and the 148 hammers(I am in CA). I can't seem to find many people shooting these bullet weights in hammers. there seems to be a good number of people having luck with the LRX but I'd like something a little heavier as I'd like to feel comfortable reaching out to 500 for black tail.

Has anyone been shooting the 133, 140, or 148 hammers out of a fast twist .270 that can tell me about their experience with their load development or their experience with hammers in the field?

Much appreciated.
