Default RE: Good .270 WIN cardridge ?

For deer, at 150 yards, I don't think that it matters what bullet you shoot through your .270 Winchester...as long as it is between 130 and 150 grains. As far as picking out which particular brand and weight of bullet your rifle likes best, again, I don't think it matters too much on game as thin skinned as deer. Every factory soft point loaded in a .270 Winchester should perform just fine on deer. When considering accuracy, you would probably be hard pressed to find a factory load that wouldn't shoot at least a three inch group at 150 yards...and the last time I checked, if you are getting three inch groups at your maximum distance in the area where you are hunting, you will kill that deer every time provided you do your part as the shooter. In short, buy whatever is cheapest and as long as it shoots half way decent then that is what I would use.
