The Winchester S270LR Expedition Big Game Long Range ammunition delivers extended-range hunting performance with Nosler AccuBond Long Range bullets. This premium 270 Winchester load combines Winchester's precision manufacturing with Nosler's advanced bonded-core technology for consistent expansion and deep penetration on big game at distances exceeding 400 yards.
What Makes This Different
The AccuBond Long Range bullet features a polymer tip and boat-tail design that maintains velocity and accuracy at extended distances where standard hunting bullets lose effectiveness. The bonded lead core prevents jacket separation during expansion, ensuring 60-70% weight retention compared to conventional bullets that often fragment. This ammunition achieves ballistic coefficients of 0.531, significantly higher than traditional hunting rounds.
Key Features
- 150-grain Nosler AccuBond Long Range bullet with polymer tip for improved ballistics
- Bonded lead core construction prevents jacket separation and ensures controlled expansion
- Boat-tail design reduces drag and maintains velocity at extended ranges

Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA accuracy in quality hunting rifles at 100 yards, with effective terminal performance maintained beyond 500 yards. The bonded construction proves particularly effective on medium to large game including deer, elk, and antelope where deep penetration through heavy bone and muscle is required. The ammunition functions reliably in various weather conditions from sub-freezing temperatures to desert heat.
