Default In your opinion, best long range .270 factory load.

I am curious as to what load everyone prefers for long range. I am looking for a factory load 130, or preferably 140gr bullet with a high BC for my .270. What is your opinion. Let me know.

Thanks

well if your gonna shoot deer or other game at long range it would be best to taylor a load to your rifle, then you could pick out an even better long range bullet than the accubond.
One of the best out there is the wildcat 169.5 gr hunting bullet, the bc will come out around .8, and this helps your drops alot but where it really shines is wind drift.
Don't get me wrong I like the accubonds, I shoot alot of them, in specialized cartridges which put out maximum horsepower, for shooting 800 yards and closer the accubonds do well with the power I put behind them, but at 270 win velocities the heavier higher bc bullets would be advantageous for LR hunting.

Thanks,

If it helps, I shoot a Remington 700 Sendero. And I most likely won't shoot much over 600 yards.
