130 gr is THE .270 bullet. Plain old Remington corlock or winchester power points are plenty good enough for deer.

Second that. Any time I sight in a new rifle, the first ammo I shoot is Core-Lok. Then when I can't get the groups I want, I switch. So far, all I've ever shot are Core-loks. 130's out of my Model 70 are MOA.

You said it.

always been a bowhunter and a shotgunner. I just got a Mossburg .270 as a gift. My question is Will any .270 shoot out the gun and does anyone have any recomandations on what ammo and grain size to use. I will be hunting deer with it. Anyfeed back would be great. Thanks

Good Hunting

ANY American-made .270 Win. ammo will shoot in it. So will MOST European made .270 Win. ammo. I used a .270 extensively during the 3 years I lived in Alaska. With the right bullets, a .270 will easily kill anything in North America-there was a woman inFairbanks when I was there who killed Polar bears with hers, using handloads withNosler 150-grain Partition bullets.

For deer in NY, I recommend using a 130-grain load. Doesn't really matter what brand. Test several makes, use the one that shoots best in your rifle.
