[QUOTE="mwkelso, post: 1690703, member: 110880"] I seem to have the same bias with my .270, but it doesn’t see shooting outside of 3-400 yards very often. Not that it can’t, it’s just that the deer are usually closer. It shoots 130gr Partitions very well. They fly faster and have more energy than the 150gr, which seem to take a dive much quicker than the 130gr. I haven’t tried anything 140gr, but I do plan on that later down the road. Just a note here, the 150gr being compared to are soft point core-lokt vs a 130gr partition. The ballistic coefficient between the two is a huge difference. I don’t mean to point the performance difference only at bullet weight. [/QUOTE]
