OutdoorHub 06.16.14
The .270 Winchester is arguably one of the best hunting cartridges ever developed. Offering plenty of punch without excessive recoil, the highly popular riffle cartridge was a no-brainer when it came to selecting rounds for the elite ProGrade Hunting Grade ammunition series. Graceful in form and function, ProGrade experts have chosen four superior .270 Winchester loads to include in its Hunting Grade.
One of the true classic cartridges, the Prograde Hunting Grade .270 Winchester rounds have been chosen for their more perfect penetration ensuring cleaner, quicker kills. All four rounds are precisely hand-loaded in accordance with the most stringent procedures in the industry, which means you’ll get the highest consistency and shot-to-shot accuracy available. With unparalleled performance, the .270 Winchester rounds load beautifully and fire even more so. The series features two Barnes rounds. The 129 gr. Barnes LRX cartridge has been developed to match the advancements in rifle accuracy and extended-range optics. It has a long profile and boattail design for match-grade accuracy at long range with an incredibly high ballistic coefficient for quick, clean and ethical kills. The 130 gr. Barnes Tipped TSX has an earned its reputation as “the perfect hunting bullet.” The round has a 100-percent copper body and a streamlined polymer tip which boosts BC and improves long-range ballistics. The cartridge retains 100-percent weight retention for a flat trajectory and creates more internal damage than any competing bullet.
The 150 gr. Nosler Partition rounds include the company’s integral partition which supports the expanded mushroom and retains the rear lead-alloy core allowing the rear core to retain more than two-thirds of the original bullet weight for flatter trajectory and deep penetration. The round is constructed of fully tapered copper-alloy jackets, a dual-core for maximum in-flight and terminal performance and special crimp locks to resist deformation under the pressure of heavy magnums. The 180 gr. Woodleigh Weldcore PP SN or protected point soft nose have a high ballistic coefficient and sectional density making for a round that delivers superior all-around effectiveness. The long bullet is the heaviest and hardest hitting load available and an excellent choice for taking down everything from deer and elk to bears and moose.
