Product Overview
Winchester loads this 150-grain Power-Point at 2850 feet per second, producing 2705 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. The heavier bullet shifts the .270 Winchester toward deeper penetration while maintaining respectable velocity. The 0.372 ballistic coefficient helps the bullet resist wind drift and maintain energy at distance, keeping it effective past 300 yards on larger game.
The 150-grain weight addresses the .270's traditional limitation on larger game. While 130-grain bullets handle deer effectively, hunters pursuing elk, large mule deer bucks, or black bear benefit from the additional mass. The extra 20 grains of bullet weight translates to momentum that keeps the projectile driving forward through muscle and bone, reaching vital organs from angles that challenge lighter bullets.
This load suits hunters who want one versatile round for mixed-bag hunts. Western hunters with both deer and elk tags can carry a single ammunition type that handles either animal effectively. The Super-X pricing makes practice affordable, and the Power-Point's proven reliability means hunters can trust their ammunition to perform when the moment arrives. It's the practical choice for .270 shooters who need more penetration than 130-grain options provide.
- The 150-grain bullet carries significantly more momentum than 130-grain loads, maintaining penetration through heavy muscle and bone on quartering shots against elk-sized game.
- Power-Point's notched jacket design initiates controlled expansion reliably across the velocity range, performing consistently whether impacts occur at 50 yards or 300 yards.
- Super-X pricing keeps this load accessible for practice and hunting, allowing shooters to train with their actual hunting ammunition.
- Boxer-primed brass cases reload well, giving handloaders quality components after the factory ammunition is spent.
- Velocity of 2850 fps produces more arc than 130-grain loads—expect roughly 2-3 inches more drop at 300 yards, requiring precise holdover knowledge at longer distances.
- Cup-and-core construction can separate when bullets encounter heavy bone at high velocity, potentially limiting penetration compared to bonded alternatives.
- The flat-base design creates more drag than boat-tail bullets, increasing wind drift on longer shots where conditions matter.
