If all else is equal, shouldn't backing off 7mmSTW data a bit and working up get you there with this uncommon chambering? If bullet weights are similar, you are only going down from .284 to .277. There could likely be just as much practical load variance due to chamber reamers, bore interior dimensions, powder lots, and brass capacities within 7mmSTW rifles as there would be in comparing two identical rifles in .270STW and 7mmSTW.


Now with even more aplomb

Code
 Cartridge          : 270 Shooting Times Westerner
Bullet             : .277, 150, Sierra SPBT 1840
Useable Case Capaci: 93.874 grain H2O = 6.095 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: 3.650 inch = 92.71 mm
Barrel Length      : 26.0 inch = 660.4 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 58377 psi, or 402 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 100 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.

Guess it depends on what you can find.

My fav 26 Nosler powder is Vv 570 with the Berger EOL 156 gr.

No experience with the other two you listed.

It's about half way down the list before QL has a powder I own. It's not like I don't experiment but damn!

If I was trying to figure out how to load this one, I'd look at 7 STW data and apply it to .270 STW for bullets of equal sectional density. That seems to work out really well for deriving .280 Remington data from .270 Winchester data. Since there is so little difference in bullet and bore diameters between the two, a burn rate that works well in one will work about the same in the other. I would leave a little headroom for safety's sake in the .270 STW, though, and I'd watch velocity carefully.

Did you create that yourself? I just updated my QL and I don't have the .270 STW in my cartridge database.

I've been running the 270 STW for a number of years now
Very happy with it.
