FWIW, I used Remington's old Extended Range Boat Tail 140 grain .270 factory ammo for 10 years on muleys and blacktails and they were instant death, in most cases. Excellent performance. An elk and a couple antelope fell to it too. Rarely a second shot needed and it was a non-premium bullet.

<br>I agree completely with Flinch and others that you don't need premiums for deer in a .270. The vast majority of non-premium .277's were designed specifically with the .270 and deer in mind.
