When it comes to 270 loads, I've always said "if it was good enough for Jack O'Connor, it's good enough for me!"   :D  That's what I load in my bolt, and I imagine it would be just as good in a 7600.  But I don't have a 7600, much less one in 270, so ... maybe I should  :-X

While not a 7600, my bolt .270 win seems to like reloader-22 and 130 grain sierra's.

Mine is the old 760 but almost the same thing. I've used several different loads and it doesn't seem too particular as far as accuracy is concerned. The bullet I like best is the Hornady 150 SST. I've used several different powders IMR4895, H4895, IMR4831, H4831, Win. 760, IMR7828, & IMR4320. All these powders have worked well for me but some will give more velocity. I've owned my 760 for over 40 years and it has served me well. I hope yours does the same.

I have always since and including my first centerfire rifle had a .270 winchester.  My load used forever is 54-1/2 grains of IMR 4350 under a 130 grain Speer Grand Slam or Nosler Partition.  I have shot some 135 gr Sierra Matchkings in my 700 bolt gun; they were loaded with 53.1 grains of IMR 4350.  My rule of thumb is that if I can't reload it with IMR 4350, then I don't need it.    Unfortunately, I have never owned a .270 in a model 760/7600 so I can't say how these loads would perform in them.  I would have high expectations though.

I'd certainly be interested in how you came out with your loads.  Did you get the accuracy you were wanting?
