Bullet selection for 270wsm
Since using Remington Core-Lokt for the past 20+ years I have decided to jump on the wsm bandwagon. I now own a Browning A-Bolt .270wsm and I am trying to decide on ammo.
I hunt in tight woods and on open pipelines so shots will range approx. out to 100 or so yards in the woods and to 200-250 on the pipelines. I am trying to decide between the Federal Ballistic Tips, Federal Solid Base (both 130gr) and the Federal 140 Accubond. I have concerns the the BT's are not good for close (25-50 yard) shots but I have no experiance with them. I need some advice on which bullet will be good for close wood shots and close to mid-range open shots. Also the deer I hunt range from 100-175 pounds.
I am aware that a .270wsm may be over kill for the woods but the gun I wanted (Browning Classic Hunter) in chambered only in the wsm's now.
