Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Each rifle barrel is a world unto it's own for sure. My .270 is a custom pre-64 model 70 with a Douglas barrel. It doesn't like the 150 grain bullets for some reason. As far as I know from his writings, Jack O'Connor always loaded and used the 130 grain bullet. He never mentioned the 150 grain loadings and didn't list it in his recipes for the .270. I love the .270 and it also makes a great long range coyote gun.

One of my 270's is a custom stocked pre64 M70 FWT. It likes the 130gre NBT and I'm using Jacks load which if I remember is 58gr of H (or IMR) 4831. As Tom said each rifle is it's own being. For me thats what makes them so much fun.
