Bullet Selection for .270

[Daff]

The barnes TTSX is a good bullet but...I'd hands down choose 150 gr Nosler Partition. I've taken alot of game with both including elk my issue with the ttsx is while it shoots great out of my gun and kills game but it puts tiny exit holes in game making tracking complicated. The Nosler Partition has never let me down.

I’ve had great luck with the 140 Accubond for elk in the .270. I’ve also never had an issue with TTSX expansion in any caliber, they flat out kill elk.

140 Accubonds are deadly. I have a box of 124 grain Hammers. Just need to find time. mtmuley

That’s up next when I shoot out my supply of Accubonds. I have lighter and more weatherproof rifles than my old .270, but I have a lot of fond memories with it.

I tried the 117 Hammer. Only Hammer bullet I can't get under MOA. Gonna drive the 124's as hard as I can. mtmuley

Im not making a recommendation either way, but my wife has taken several elk with the 130 Federal Trophy Copper. Shots were all sub 200 as she enjoys getting close.

Whatever your rifle likes. Can't kill an elk without hitting em.
