Default RE: .270Win Loads/brand favorites?

For deer I generally use regular ole 130 grain Remington corelokts. That's all the bullet any whitetail or mule deer will ever need.

For elk I have used failsafes, ballistic tips, and trophy bonded bear claws in 140 grains and in 150 grain I have used Nosler partitions and corelokt round nose. All have been one shot kills and less than 75 yards tracking. The only one recovered was a 140 grain TBBC.

If you want one bullet for deer and elk I would suggest any of the premium bullets that stay together well in 140 grains. Such as Barnes X bullets, Trophy Bonded bear claws, A-frames, etc...
