The Nosler 27130 Ballistic Tip bullets deliver exceptional accuracy and terminal performance for 270 Winchester hunters and precision shooters. These 130-grain spitzer bullets feature Nosler's proven polymer tip design that initiates rapid expansion while maintaining weight retention for deep penetration.
What Makes This Different
The polycarbonate tip resists deformation in the magazine and drives expansion upon impact at velocities as low as 1,800 fps. Unlike standard soft-point bullets that can have inconsistent expansion, the Ballistic Tip's engineered tip ensures reliable mushrooming across a wide velocity range. The boat-tail base design reduces drag and improves ballistic coefficient compared to flat-base bullets, extending effective range and maintaining energy downrange.
Key Features
- 130-grain spitzer bullet optimized for 270 Winchester cartridges
- Polycarbonate tip initiates controlled expansion at impact
- Boat-tail design improves ballistic coefficient and long-range performance
- Lead-alloy core bonded to gilding metal jacket for weight retention
- Cannelured shank provides consistent crimp and bullet seating
- 50 bullets per box for extended shooting sessions
- Ballistic coefficient of approximately 0.435 for flat trajectory
Field testing shows these bullets maintain 60-65% weight retention while creating wound channels 1.5-2 times bullet diameter. The 130-grain weight provides an optimal balance of velocity and energy for medium game hunting at ranges from 100 to 400 yards. Competitive shooters appreciate the consistent point of impact and reduced wind drift compared to heavier bullets in windy conditions.
