Does anyone (factory) load 270 win match ammo?

I really like my blaser k95 270 barrel and want to shoot some match ammo in it.

Thanks,

Mike

The closest you'll get to factory match ammo is either HSM 130 Gr Berger Match Hunting VLD, HSM or Federal 130 Gr Sierra Game King, or Norma 130 Gr FMJ.

I've shot it all in my 270s except the HSM Berger ammo and found the HSM SGK was preferred by 3 rifles, 1 preferred Federal SGK, 1 Preferred Norma.

I bought a couple boxes of Nosler Custom 140 Gr Accubond on a recent sale but have yet to try them. I acquired some Reloader 26 and plan to load some 140s & 150s when I get my Ruger back with with a spiffy new Kreiger 5R 8 twist tube on it.

Is there some type of precision shooting match where the 270 Win. is dominate? I realize that the Blaser rifles are dominating all the major shooting disciplines, but I didn't know the 270 Win. was the lead dog.

And the guys winning are using factory ammo too!

I think the OP is just wondering if there is some more accurate factory ammo.

I haven't seen any marketed as "Match" ammunition.

But in addition to the HSM loaded with Bergers

Federal offers a 140 Berger Hybrid in 1their premium line

HSM also offers the new Sierra Game Changer in 270 win.

I was wasting time at my range yesterday and set up my 5 pound blaser k95 with my 3-10 zeiss conquest and was shooting 1.2 inches at 300 meters. I was also shooting $13 130 grain Remingtons from Walmart.

My k95 hate reloads. So I am looking for accurate match grade factory bullets to try and replacing the scope with a nightforce br 12-42x target scope.

Thanks,

Mike

Not match, but the Winchester 140 Supreme Accubond load in my two 270 Wins are my two must accurate rifles.

The handload I use seeks to match this.

Sub now for five shots is repeatable.

I have some really old Sierra 135 grain 270 match bullets. Most of my big bore shooting has been with the 270 wcf. The Hornady sst has been a really accurate bullet.

I know what you meant, but that hurt my brain - but we all know I am a bit of a big bore fan .. i have rifles that I can cutoff a 270 case and use it for the CUP of a bullet, and some that an entire 270 case would just rattle down the bore
