Any 130 gr load is very likely to perform on a whitetail. My 270's are not finicky.
Imagine your grave on a windy winter night. You've been dead for 70 years. It's been 50 since a visitor last paused at your tombstone..... Now explain why you're in a pissy mood today.

Accurate depends on what your rifle likes. Since I usually shoot stuff at fairly short range, I worry more about getting two holes for a good blood trail, if needed. Partitions excel at that, as would mono-metal bullets. With any high-speed round, keep your shots out of the meat you want to eat, unless you like it pre-ground, jellied, and filled with bits of lead.

Lots of accurate bullets out there and judging from the thousands of deer killed each year with the 270 most work well. While I have mostly been a c&c bullet user I am thinking of going to a premium bullet in my 270. In my area I am very likely to get shot At a deer well under 100 yds where the impact velocity of a 130 gr could crowd 3000 fps. That's pretty high for a c&c bullet. The partition would be a bit of additional ins in either 130 gr or the 150gr. So I'm thinking of going there.

The Federal .270 150 gr round nose ( blue box) factory load @ 2,700 fPS is a great compromise at woods ranges.

130 NBT and 130 Hornady Intlk have literally put a truckload of whitetails into the freezer for me.

finally ran out of old Winchester 130 gr silvertips. Wish they still made them. Same here. 1/2" out of my Sako AV Hunter. Got a few factory loads left and a couple hundred component bullets. Gonna try to dupicate that load when the factory loads are all gone. It also shoots 150g Win. Power Points into about 3/4" about an inch directly below the 130g Silvertips.

I just refuse to use the 270.... Why? Shot a friends that kicked like a mule for some reason. Worse than an 06, almost as bad as my 300 wtby. Shot a few deer with it and it damaged way to much meat for my tastes. The 130 ballistic tips were like hand grenades. To be fair, loading for a friends father until he passed away, 95 ttsx and I did use that gun last fall in honor of him, to shoot a deer. It didn't do much damage to the edible meat and the deer didn't go very far with a lung shot. The dog was NOT happy it was such a short trailing job.. LOL A cousin bought one and thought the same, kicks a lot for the round,, more than an 06. And damaged a lot of meat. This with 130 sierras. Better rounds out there for me. I tend to not monkey in the middle much... either smaller or larger rounds. Plus Jack O Connor liked it, and I liked Keith. LOL.

Almost the same as a 300 wtby? That seems like a stretch. I have experience with 270 and 300 wm both in a 700 sps platform. No comparison between the two. More along the lines of 308 I would say. Especially with 130 gr.

If I could get the Hornady 150 Interbond to shoot, that would be the only 270 bullet I'd ever need.

I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA
