NOE makes my favorite design in that caliber, and they are in stock.
Tapered nose works great in bolt actions.

JonB,
Would that be Glencoe ky by chance? And the ones instock say designed for 6.5? I'm looking for.270 Remington. Are they the same? Sorry for the newbie question

Minnesota.
Many Foreign 6.5 Mil Surp rifles need a .270" boolit.
I never heard of .270 Remington.

Are you talking about a Remington rifle chambered in 270 Winchester? You would be looking for a mold that casts around .279-.280

I use an Ideal #280412 - 130gn which is perfect in my custom 270 Savage. Sized to 0.279" with PC & GC.

I have shot thousands of the RCBS 270-150-SP bullets, and it does everything I want out of a cast bullet.

Best mould for the money .... well I hate to say it but I always give the new Lee moulds a "shot" first .
A double cavity , with handles for $28.99 at Midway ... you might have to wait for them to get in but at that price point you can play with cast boolits while deciding what eaxactly you want / need in a more expensive mould . I have also found most lee designs to be quite servicable ..
I'm not a big fan of the tumble lube designs but that's just my old school self being old school .
I have at least one Lee mould for every rifle , revolver and pistol I own .

well here is what you will find. i would not try a 279 in a win 70 it wont chamber
if you have a tight chamber like one i have 277 is only thing that will feed
the Lee i had was 278 it will size to 277 but will not chamber in a win 70 unsized

My throat measures .280 inch. Has a nice transition into the riffling. I size to .280. Quick pound cast will tell you what you can handle.

The 270 150 from RCBS has given me the best accuracy.
