Cartridge help

Well, I am wanting to get some suggestions as to what cartridges i should shoot out of my new .270, as far as grains and everything.I want it to be a store purchased cartridge that i can easily get. My shots can be anywhere from 30yds out to 150ish yds. Thank you guys!!

Remington 130 Gr. Core Lokts. They shot very good outta my .270 I know that every gun is different, but those are good cheap shells.

RE: Cartridge help

As you've stated if your longest shot is going to be under 200 yards just about any load between 130 & 150 grains will work very well. As others have suggested the 130 gr. Core-Lokt is great but the Winchester Power Point and Federal Hi-Shok would also work equally well. There is no need unless you want to spend the money to go with a premium type of ammo for deer at the ranges you speak of.

Federal Fusions 130 grain. Best factory load that I have ever seen.
