Well you got your answers. Being a devote 270 owner for over 40 years and taking a lot of game with it in the east and west I can say that the 130 gr bullet is by far the best bullet for the 270 Win. I can't vouch for factory ammo but all I've ever used in mine were Sierra Game Kings or Nosler Ballistic Tips in the 130 gr size pushed by 55 gr of IMR4350 powder.
How long is your barrel, and what kind of velocity are you getting in that load?
Im thinking of switching the barrel on my savage 7mag to 270 so my father can use it. Brass is cheaper too.
