Solved from this product's advertised 2850 fps, 150gr bullet and G1 BC 0.370, with the sight 1.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for .270 Winchester, or read What Is the Best .270 Winchester Zero for Elk?.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 8" vital zone, ±4" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 500 yards.

Product Overview
Winchester Super-X 150-grain Power Max Bonded is a bonded .270 Winchester hunting load. The Power Max Bonded bullet is a protected hollow point whose jacket is bonded to the lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 2,850 fps with 2,705 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .370.
Zeroed at 100 yards, it drops 30.9 inches at 400 yards. From a 200-yard zero the drop at 400 is 23.6 inches.
If you're cross-shopping, Winchester's Super-X 150-grain Power-Point starts at the same 2,850 fps with a plain lead nose and drops 31.9 inches at 400 yards from a 100-yard zero. Nosler's Trophy Grade 150-grain Partition is 50 fps slower on a G1 BC of .465 and off that zero drops 29.8 inches at 400.
- A bonded core, where Winchester's Super-X 150-grain Power-Point and Federal's Power-Shok 150-grain are plain soft points
- The most muzzle energy of the .270 Winchester 150-grain loads compared, level with Winchester's own Super-X 150-grain Power-Point
- Carries 1,538 ft-lbs at 300 yards, 68 more than Winchester's Super-X 150-grain Power-Point, and 1,253 at 400 yards
- A lower G1 BC than every load compared apart from Winchester's own Super-X 150-grain Power-Point at .344 and Federal's Power-Shok 150-grain at .261
- About 10 percent more estimated recoil than Hornady's American Whitetail 140-grain InterLock, which drops 5 inches less at 400 yards from a 100-yard zero
- The core is bonded but still lead, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
