I have 2 friends with .270's. Both of them use 150gr. Sierra BT's at 2,850fps - for everything from deer to moose and elk. they are both excellent game shots. They love their rifles and would not consider shoot big game with a 130gr. bullet.

Did you know that the great .270 promoter Jack O'Connor, actually admitted it took him an average of 3.8 of those 130gr. Silver Tips he insisted on using, to kill a BC moose. 3.8 shots per moose - good grief!

Had he used a big game bullet instead of that baby deer bullet, I'm sure his results would have been better - unless he was a horrid shot.

Any of the Premium 130's if I had to use one so light, or one of the 150's or heavier, would be my choice if I every used a .270, that is.
