Deer Hunting with the .270 Winchester
In any case, both the .270 Winchester and the 30-06 are great deer hunting cartridges and any hunter will do fine to carry either into either the deer fields or the deer woods.
The .270 Winchester is most often found loaded with the 130 grain bullet. However the 140 grain is the best in terms of ballistic coefficient. Interestingly, my personal .270 Winchester shoots the 150 grain bullet more accurately than either the 130 or 140 grain. However the ballistics of either of the three is impressive. (Ballistics given are using Remington Core-Lokts. Data is from Remington.com) Both the 130 and the 140 grain bullets will carry almost 1000 foot pounds of energy to 500 yards which is much farther than most hunters have any business shooting. 300 yards is probably a more reasonable shooting limit for most hunters and both the 130 grain and 140 bullets are stellar at this range. The 130 grain bullet will only drop 7 inches at 300 yards with a 200 yard zero. The 140 grain bullet will only drop 7.6 inches. The 130 grain and the 140 grain bullet both carry about 1500 foot pounds of energy at 300 yards. For an interesting comparison, the fine 30-30 Winchester which probably has taken more deer than any other caliber carries only 1300 foot pounds of energy at 100 yards.
Though I have become more interested recently in small yet efficient deer hunting cartridges (such as the .260 Remington and the 7mm-08 Remington) that have the potential to tear up less meat and I am happiest of all hunting with my flintlocks, I cannot imagine an opening day of deer season without my old .270 Winchester in my hands.
The popularity alone of the .270 Winchester for deer hunting is proof by itself about the usefulness of the caliber. From its early champion Jack O'Connor to the thousands of hunters who carry rifles chambered for the .270 Winchester into the woods each winter, the .270 is a deer hunting favorite that shows no let up in its popularity. Whether the hunter prowls the open fields or the dense brush, the .270 Winchester is up to the job.
