RE: .270 bullet options
I have always liked 150 gr bullets in my 270 (because that is what my gun likes), but my son has been shooting Win Supreme 140 gr Accubonds with great success. The bullet is very similar to a ballistic tip but with "controlled expansion" rather than rapid expansion. I don't shoot my 270 much anymore, but if I did, I would sure have to give them a try.

Like mentioned 130-150 will do just fine. Personally i used 130 for deer sized game mostly. I had good results with Nosler Parts, Ballistic Tips and Hornady Interloc's. The accubond loaded by winchester supreme and/or federal premium in 140grshould be an excellent choice as well!
