I didn’t get dies for the 270 until Christmas this past year, so I haven’t had a chance to test my 270 loads on game yet. Federal Blue Box always shoots well for me and does the trick. So far my most accurate 270 loads have been 130gr Nosler Ballistic Tips and 130gr Federal Trophy Bonded, both with IMR 4350

We shoot 150 Win. power points also with a load of 57 grains of IMR 7828. It is a slow load but we have way over a thousand of these bullets (bought in the 1970s). Where we hunt there are plenty of big tough hogs and these bullets work fine on hogs and deer. A 130 Speer Hot-cor or a 130 SST loaded With H4831 works just fine also but I can't see buying bullets after I inherited the power points that my elder cousin had bought for elk loads. The 150 power points will hammer a big hog and are probably a little over kill on a deer but the bullets are without cost. I normally use a .30-06 and my daughter uses the .270.

56gr W780 corked with a 160gr NP.

Or just about anything else I've tried.

It's just gotta be the 140gr Hornady BTSP on top of 57gr H4831SC. Although I'm experimenting with RL26 as we speak with the same bullet.
