Why would you want to use 130's when you can shoot 140 Accubonds. 130's are perfect for all run of the mill yearlings, spikers etc plus any pig but they are just a bit light for a big rutting stag where a shoulder hit front on or side on, might only break that leg and not quite penetrate enough to stop him. Lets be honest on a big tough animal with the red mist in his eyes something with similar power to a 7mm rem mag is a lot better than a 270. So I say embrace these new bullets and powder that move the 270 up quite a few notches.
