Kirby, Thanks for such a complete post, it is very much appreciated!!!
Bigngreen,
Matrix also makes a 175 gr 270 bullet as well. I have not tested them yet but plan on trying them in my 270 Allen Magnum soon. From the reports I am hearing, the 165 gr version is holding up better to higher velocity then the 175 gr version. Not sure why, maybe different jackets but its certainly a good option for the 270 and badly needed.
Turns the 270 calibers into true contenders. In my opinion, the 270 is a bit light in any bullet weight for elk at ranges past 800 yards but these bullets give the 270 the ability to do anything the 7mm magnums in the same velocity class to do so another good option.
For deer hunting at longer ranges, these are a huge boon to the 270 cal family of chamberings.
