I began shooting and reloading for a .270 in 1958. I began with Sierra 130 gr. sp and over the years have shot many, many deer with 130 gr cup and core bullets--Sierra, Speer, and Hornady. I mostly used Sierra, and Hornady, because I felt that. although they were very accurate. the Speers were a bit too tough. But, the past few years, i have been using up some old Speer hot-core paper box 130's. Of the last 5 bucks I have shot (ranges from 72 to 251 yds) with the Speers, only one moved out of his tracks, and that one only went about 30 yds. My g/f uses factory 130 gr. core-lokt's in her .270 with similar results.
