Default RE: .270Win Loads/brand favorites?

My 270 has never shot any better than when I shot Federal HI-SHOK 130 gr. soft points, I don't know if they make them anymore, but my gun liked those the best. I have had mixed results with Core-lokts and the cheapy Winchester silver box stuff. I tried Federal gamekings this year along with Fusion's and Barnes coated xlc's (all 130 gr.). The gamekings grouped the best of the three but I hunted with the Barnes and was happy with the results. In my Midway flyer I see they have Federal 130 grain XLC's for 12.99 for a box of 20, I paid $15 (which is what I paid for the Fusions). If I wasn't rebarreling my gun to a .280 rem I would definately buy more.
