Look on your barrel and if it says Winchester 270 then use Winchester Silver Tip ammunition. I did and you can see the results from the pictures below.

Hornady is best factory load out there. 180 grn. is most common, but the distance your shooting matters most. Higher grns. for close shots and lower grns. for longer shots. maybe 150 grn. for over 200 yrds.

I assume you mean you have a Remington chambered in .270 Win. If so, I have had great results with Winchestors ballistic silvertips in 130 gr.

Hornady SST's. Any grain from 130-150 will do. I personally use 140 grain. The 130 is ballistically the most efficient however.

A 130 - 140 grain bullet, regardless of brand, seems to have the best all around ballistics for the .270. soft points are fine for whitetails. Hit em right with one of these and they will go down in a heap.

I would definitally say you can't go wrong with the winchester ballistic silvertips. As long as you hit that animal in the kill zone, it isn't going to go far at all! I use a 30-06 here in Az, and I have killed both deer and bull elk with the 150 gr. I don't know where you are hunting, but with a 270 you wont need anything more than 150 gr., all depends on how far you intend to shoot. It is rare to drop an elk where it stands, but I swear I did it with a lung shot last fall. Just don't gut shoot it, etc and that animal is gonna go night night. Good luck

You will need to practice with your Remington and try several different brands and loads to see what you are the most accurate with. Dropping a deer in it's tracks will not always happen. The best thing you can do for yourself, and out of respect for the animal, is to become deadly accurate and able to hit a deer's vitals area every time. You must be sure of your ability in all kinds of weather, distances and light conditions. This will only happen after you and your Remington have become "old friends" I have heard the Barnes Triple Shock Bullet is one of the most reliable bullets. I can also tell you I have never failed with Remington's CoreLokt ammo over many years. See what works best for you and stick with it.

What is the difference between 270 Win, and 270 WSM

answer 1

The short magnums have pretty much the same trajectory at 300yds but cost about 40% more than the standard 270 Winchester. You won't find much difference in the field as far as effectiveness goes. The only noticeable difference is the casing size.

270 Win is regular 270 ammo and 270 WSM is short magnum ammo which is more powerful ammunition.

answer 3

theres really not much difference. It was really just a marketing ploy from winchester to vamp up sales. Basically the whole idea was to make it a short action rifle instead of the little longer out of the regular 270 and to get more powder closer to the magnum primer for a faster ignition by like a millisecond. I dont feel the need to trade in my 270 for that, plus the WSM is like 150 maybe 200 FPS faster which means nothing unless your shooting 1000 yards and plus WSM ammo will be harder to find and plus its more expensive and If you reload like I do then It uses up a lot more powder for not a lot more results. They developed it for the people who feel they need to have the latest greatest thing out there.

.270 Win is the original round from Winchestor. .270 WSM (Winchestor Short Magnum) is the same bullet but with a shorter and fatter casing that allows a more efficient burn rate of the powder which in turn provides better performance. They are very different and are not interchangable.

THE 270 IS A REG MAG AND THE WSM IS A WINCHESTER SHORT MAG.

The WSM is necked down. Not worth the extra loot for the rounds. A standard .270 Hornady SST is one of the most efficient and capable rounds on the market. .270 caliber rifles are readily availible in all the popular brands, and the hornady ammo is only 25 bucks or so a box. I shoot a .270 and use the 140 grain sst's.

.270 WIn is the standard .270 that has been around for many years. I have three of these and they perform very, very well. The .270 WSM is the newer Winchester Short Magnum. Shorter action with more power. It should shoot even flatter than the impressive .270 Win.

answer 10

The 270 WSM is a bit faster than the 270 Win. and the bullets perform better when shot at longer ranges out of the WSM. The 270 WSM is also a shorter shell, making it faster to reload than the long action of the 270 Win.

It all depends on what you're shooting. If you're looking for good target ammunition, I always recommend the CCI rounds as they're fairly accurate and dependable while being one of the cheaper rounds on the market. If you're shooting small game, I have had good results with Hornady's V-Max rounds out to 200-225yds. Hope this helps

Like all guns, try different ammo at the range and see which performs best in your gun. Since 22 ammo is cheap, you will have fun shooting and won't break your wallet. I have tried alot of different ammo, and for 22s I like CCI. Although Remington, and the other manufactures make good ammo also.

Good luck.

Use the Winchester Silver Tip. I used Hornady Soft Tip ammo last year and didn't find my deer until the Coyotes had eaten it. This year the animal dropped dead within 50 yards. You can see from the pictures below the damage the silver tip ammo did.

The hornady ammo is a couple of dollars cheaper.. basically you get what you pay for. If you want fire five shot of the hornady and five shots of the winchester ballistic silvertip.. that will be all the answer you need. The winchester ammo will out perform almost anything on the market..

answer 3

I use the ballistic silvertip bullet in 130 grain 270 and have been using it for the last 10+ years due to how it always impresses me with it terminal ballistics at all ranges from 10-400 yards....the range of shots I've killed things with it. I've never had to shoot anything twice with it in all the dozens of deer, hogs, and coyotes I've shot with it. I've never shot a 25-06, but its pretty similar to a 270 I would assume and I always have nice exit wounds and never have to track what I kill. It just drops. Ive never used Hornady in that range of caliber so I cant say yea or nea on them.
