Between my sons, nephews Dad, friends, and myself. We have successfully used 85gr-150gr bullets from hollow points to monometals on prairie dogs to Elk.
Who makes an 85 gr .277 offering?? I've apparently missed something!
When all I owned was a single .270, I ran the 90 gr Sierra on varmints and the 130 Hornaday on deer. For elk, it was generally just a good ole 150 Core-Lokt.
The .270 may not be everyone's idea of a "do all-end all" cartridge, but for the newbie it's a really good place to start.
