Help me choose a bullet for my .270

That is interesting on the dots. When I checked them with my 130gr load, they were dead on out to 400.
never checked at 500 though, as I will not shoot that far while hunting.

In the process of setting up a long range on our property. 600 will be max though.

With the 1-10" twist I would try the 130 gr TTSX. But, its hard to argue with anyone's success with their preferred bullet . I don't have a rifle in this cart tho as I prefer and use the 6.5 Creedmoor for everything y'all would use a 270 for. I've got to work up a hunting load with the 130 gr TSX for my Creed.

Phil Shoemaker : "I went to a .30-06 on a fine old Mauser action. That worked successfully for a few years until a wounded, vindictive brown bear taught me that precise bullet placement is not always possible in thick alders, at spitting distances and when time is measured in split seconds. Lucky to come out of that lesson alive, I decided to look for a more suitable rifle."
