    Factory .270 moose cartridge

    Going with a .270 this year on a few moose trips and since I have never used this caliber im looking to see what factory round anyone has had luck with over the years. Thanks!

    I use the hornady interlock for my .270 130 grain for deer. Love it

    I am planning the same, 270 for moose and elk, I'm looking at the federal trophy bonded 140gr or 150 partition, using federal fusion 150 for practice as they are almost identical ballistically and cheap to shoot

    just pick a well built bullet like TTSX or Accubond, even partition...they all will work well. Shot placement as usual is just as important.

    Any premium factory round, monolithics would work well killing wise. Make sure they shoot well out of your pea shooter, and go kill a rubber noze, or bugling ba$tard!! Moosin

    If your rifle like Federal powder than I would try a Federal with Nosler Partition.
    I am guessing you are keeping the distances fired "respectable".
    If really reaching out there, which I don't recommend with a 270 on Moose sized game, than something else.
    But the partition is a tried and trued bullet.

    Oh Boy, can't wait for the "You at least need a 300 win mag" posts. I don't shoot this calibre but I would say a well constructed bullet and a well placed shot will work. But you make sure your rifle shoots well with which ever bullet you choose. I would start with partition bullets
