Default RE: just purchased some ammo for 270.

I've tried it in my Rem.700LSS Mtn. rifle, and it shoots pretty good; about 1-1/2" groups
at 100yds for 4or5 shots. Haven't had a chance to hunt with it yet. My other 150gr. load
that I normally use is Rem. 150gr. Core-Lokts. The Rem. stuff also shoots about 1-1/4" to 1-1/2". Nice thing is though, both the Federal & the Remington shoot to the same POI
with my rifle.
Now, Federal Premium 150gr. Nosler Part. loads shoot about 1" groups in my rifle, but given the cost of the ammo I'll stick with the cheaper stuff. Whitetail deer don't need
premium bullets. Also, if I used the Fed. Prem. ammo I'd have to adjust my sights for
a different POI (they group low/left of the others).
