    Interesting. Lee used to sell a 270 mold back in the early 90's but this appears to be a different design.

    135gr is a tad heavy for 6.8 as it was designed for projectiles under 120gr but with that said I do shoot a 134gr Ideal boolit (280412) above 18gr of H4895 in my 18" Recon Bison barreled upper and it works very well.

    I have the NOE 124gr, it's perfect for the 6.8. Cast from clip wts, water dropped, 126gr. I just PC some, giving it a try in my 18" at about 2000fps.

    I have a lyman at 122gr and a rcbs at 150gr and often wished for a 130 grainer. Can't wait for this one!!

    Good news, Lee now shows a .278 size die kit. Just wrote an e-mail to titan to see when they would have it.
