The 150 grain Nosler Partition is near-perfect bullet out of the .270. Paired with about 60 grains of R26 I'm getting just over 3000 fps out of a 26" M70. You'll get devastating expansion and deep penetration. What's not to like.

Partitions.
You don't even need to know what animal is being shot,
It's always a great choice.
130 vs 150? It really won't matter much.

I like the 150 Hornady spire point with 53 gr IMR 4350, near max but safe in my Model 70 and very accurate.

Thanks for the suggestions. I believe I will develop some loads for the 140 Accubonds and if it shoots well that will be the bullet for the 270. Perhaps practice with 140 sierras to control cost but what hunting days I have left the 140 seems a seasonable approach. 140 accubond shot very well in two of my 270s with 58 grains of H4831SC and a Rem 9 1/2
Good bullets properly placed always work, but not everyone knows what good bullets are, or can reliably place them in the field

Nosler 150 grain Long Range Accubond 150 grain over H1000 powder. It will kill stuff both near and far.
For years I used Nosler's 160 grain Partition in my .270's. But the LR Accubond has the advantage as ranges increase, with little downside on closer range shots.

I've really become a fan of the 140 grain Accu Bond in the 270. That's what I have loaded for mine for this hunting season. + 1 +2. Reliable like the Partition, but will likely shoot just a bit better.

One bullet for the 270. One size fits all?

130 gr Partitions in a not-quite max reload shot consistently for me. was a killer.
Also used 150 gr Partitions in my pre-64 Model 70. small groups. Dead deer.
Have run Hornady, Speer, and some ugly 150 gr Remington RN bullets thru my 270 also.
Some were sorta interchangable point-of -impact wise. All were OK for the hunting i do.
The Partitions shot the smallest groups. Learn which of these shoots best in your rifle.

I lean toward the 150 partition or 2nd choice would be 130 partition. I have found the 150gr partition to do everything I have asked of it on antelope to elk from 11 yards out to just short of 600yds. It has always performed and never let me down

Whichever one shoots acceptable in your rifle. Start with the "benchmark" Partitions and if they don't shoot for you go to the TTSX. I've yet to see a rifle that does not like them.
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

I have been shooting the 129gr. LRX in my 270 Weatherby and 130gr. TTSX in my daughter's 270 Win. I just purchased a new Vanguard in 270 Win. and will be shooting the 150gr. ABLR behind RL26 if I can find some! The BC of the ABLR is .591 and running 3,000 to 3,100 FPS should be a hard hitting flat shooting hammer!

I just sold a new vanguard 270 to a friend. I had never shot it but he wanted one load for everything so I gave him 100 nosler 150g partitions, a pound of imr7828, some cci 250s and 100 win brass. U told him start at 57.5g and work up to 59g. Try seating to oal of 3.275, 3.3, and 3.25. He sent me pics of some half inch groups a few days later. It should be clocking over 2900 fps too.
