[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2602383, member: 107750"] This is a hard question given the uncertainty of what you might find to be available - you may wish to offer what that looks like for more useful answers. Basic factory ammo with non-bonded lead bullets like Core Lokt, Powerpoint, etc. have always been easy to shoot well in my 270. I prefer using 150 grain bullets with the basic cup and core ammo. My favorite previously low cost factory ammo has been the Federal Fusion. It works well in many guns including my 270 - very similar to the CoreLokt, etc. being easy to shoot sub-MOA - and is a bonded bullet so a bit tougher which I'm more apt to shoot the 130 grain options with (although for 270win I still prefer to shoot the 150's and 140's). The Hornady GMX and Barnes TSX/TTSX are good options when you need a non-lead bullet. The Accubond is a great option when I decide that I need something better ballistically for my 270win than a Core-Lokt or Fusion. I've never used the similar options from Sierra which have a reputation for shooting well out of many guns like the AB's ... but I wouldn't hesitate to try their bonded/tipped options if I found them in stock.
