Product Overview
Remington Core-Lokt 130-grain Tipped is a polymer-tipped .270 Winchester hunting load made for deer and big game. It is the Core-Lokt soft point with a polymer tip in place of the exposed lead nose. It leaves the muzzle at 3,080 fps with 2,740 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .447.
Zeroed at 100 yards, it drops 23.8 inches at 400 yards, less than any other load compared, and arrives with 1,493 ft-lbs. From a 200-yard zero the drop at 400 is 18.4 inches.
If you're cross-shopping, Winchester's Deer Season XP 130-grain is 20 fps slower on a G1 BC of .450 and lands within half an inch of this load at 400 yards from a 100-yard zero. Federal's Fusion 130-grain has a bonded core on a G1 BC of .400 and off that zero it drops 25.4 inches at 400.
- The fastest start of the .270 Winchester loads compared
- The most muzzle energy of the 130-grain loads compared
- Still moving 2,274 fps at 400 yards
- Winchester's Deer Season XP 130-grain carries a marginally higher G1 BC at .450 and narrows the gap by 400 yards
- The heaviest estimated recoil of the 130-grain loads compared, by a fraction of a ft-lb
- A lead core, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
