factory loaded ammo

Recommended Posts

For the past 3 years I was shooting my Remington 700 .270 with Winchester silver ballistic tip 130 grain bullets. For the past year I've had trouble finding that load and recently after going to the range I find my self with my last 5 silver tips :-\ today I decided to go with the Winchester power max bonded load at 130 grain. I did shoot several nice groups, some at 3/4" some at 1". The problem that I had was that with some of the 3 shot groups I would hit target on 2 shots and the third shot would hit 5-6 inches left and 7-8 inches low which really didn't convince me.

 

My question is, what factory load have you guys have good grouping with, I am all ears and open to any suggestions in different loads and weights, if like to stick with 130 grains but would consider something else. As of right now I am not capable of loading my own ammo so that is not an option. FYI I wouldn't shoot a deer farther than 370-390 yds do with that said what do you guys think would be my better option?

This is what I'm working with Remington model 700 .270 with 4-16x44 vortex viper Talley rings and bipod....

 

I thought this was cool so I will share, I had a Camo steering wheel cover on my jeep which became wobbly and was useless for my steering wheel, but I was in the market for a scope sleeve and it clicked in my brain to turn the steering wheel cover into a scope sleeve. So I had my mom measure my scope and she sowed it to perfection, it looks good....here is a couple of pictures for you guys and gals to see..... :-)
