When I was a young pup and didn't have a safe full of rifles, a trusty .270 was my only centerfire rifle.
I tried some of those Sierra 90g HP and found the accuracy was missing and the longer range performance was shaky.
I then returned to the 130g Nosler BT which was made for the .270 and has proven itself over and over again in the field. Accuracy went back up and extended range performance was outstanding. I viewed it as practice for the big game season and learned how that load performed at all distances and angles.
Let's say I was not a hide hunter. Although I did hunt for hide on one 150 yard broadside shot on a coyote and wasn't all that successful in finding anything. Even more so for foxes, although they didn't seem to have all the needed body weight to absorb all the energy.
I would suggest trying out your big game load and view it as practice.
