RE: What load/bullet combo for using .270 as a varmit rifle?
Hi ThreeThumbs,
It's been years since I've used a .270 Winchester for varminting. The last time I did I handloaded some 90 grain Hollow Points from Sierra, (don't even know offhand if they still offer that bullet). They shot plenty accurate for me out of a Voere that 300 yards and more on woodchucks were within easy range. But as was stated about the Speer TNT's.....don't expect to save many pelts! (Actually what you have left looks like it has been dressed, butchered, and skinned......but nearly so neatly!)
Good luck with your search!
