My stepdad shoots 150 round nose core lokts in his 270 and swears by them. I used to shoot a ruger m77 270 and used 130 power points and fusions and was very pleased with accuracy but didn't like that the entrance and exit hole were the same size. If you handload I would try some 130 or 140 accubonds. If ballistic tips is what you like I would try some 150 nosler ballistic tips unless your shots will be very close and if that's the case I'd definitely go with the accubonds.

I've killed deer with a ton of 270 bullets, but 140 accubonds are my favorite.
The only bullets i didnt like we're 130 Barns triple shocks and core-lokts.

I've taken over 50 head of big game with my Model 70. 130 grain pointed soft point core-lokt is all I have ever used. I've never hit an animal that I didn't find. this includes a 300+ pound hog hit directly in the front shoulder, and a number of hard angled shots entering or exiting through the gut.
They are inexpensive and easy to find. Whatever ammunition you decide on, buy as many of the same lot number as you can. In doing this, (instead of picking up a few boxes each year) you can insure you are getting ammo that was loaded to the same specifications.
"The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. - Finn Aagard

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I shot 140gr Fusions out of mine and they performed great from 10ft out to 100 yds or so. I hunt woods and never had to shoot further but I would have had confidence in them at longer distances. 140 gr fusions for me, u can't beat em Exactly where are y'all finding these 140gr fusion bullets for a 270 Win????
You're only as good as your worst shot-

Sorry, 140gr out of a 7-08, the .270 was 150gr. Either one equaled dead deer.
