Good evening /k/omrads.

I've recently acquired a Winchester XPR in .270 and now I'm in the market for some ammo.

Here is my situation:

As I said above, rifle is a NIB Winchester XPR.
It came with a Crossfire II 3-9x40 scope.

I'm looking for two types of ammo.

I'd like ammo for plinking/sighting in the scope.

I also need ammo for durr and hog. I'm in the North Texas area if that helps regarding whitetail size.

My plan is to sight in the rifle at 200 yards and reach out no further than 400 yards on any shot.

What do? Pic related, of course.

>Plinking
Cheapest stuff you like on the shelf.

>Sighting in the scope
The exact stuff you would use on your hunt.

>Hunting ammo
The Good stuff. Your pic related, 140gr SST will fuck shit up just fine. Hogs, Deer, anything in between, you're good to go.

>270

faggot

>>27581954
That's a fine rifle for white tail hunting, nogunz.

>>27581954

Number of guns you own = 0

>>27582047
308 or 30-06, neofudds

>anything under 30 cal
>>
>Crossfire II

Throw that scope in the garbage. I love Vortex... In the $350-$1500 price range.

But Crossfire and Diamondbacks are shit.
>>
>>27582115
Viper series is fine, and at that price point you can afford the GOAT scopes of SWFA.
>>
>>27582047
Hell, .243 is fine if you're not a shit shot. I hunted with one until I was around 12 and never had a problem dropping a deer.

>>27582101
>>27581954
Post a time stamped picture of what you hunt with and I'll PayPal you $20. Don't worry, I'll wait.
>>
>>27582160
If you notice, I didn't include Viper series in their list of shit offerings.

>>27581954
Looks like you belong in the garbage with OP's Crossfire II retard.

>hurr a 130gr projectile at 3000fps is bad

Fucking moron.
>>
>>27582201
Vipers sell for under $350 usually.
>>
>>27581824

Is 140 grain too much? I was also seeing some 130 out there.

>>27582101
I've already got a fuddy ought six. I typicalyy use core loct with that but was interested in someyhing different.
>>
>>27582238
No, 140gr will perform fine. How's the fit and finish feel on that gun? Been looking at an XPR series for a while.
>>
>>27582263

It's nice. I havent fired it yet, but I loved how it fit. I was also looking at the Axis II XP, but the XPR won out hands down. I cant wait to get it to the range.

Kek

>>27581802
>plinking
whatever is cheapest
>hunting
anything with a barnes (t)tsx or nosler's hunting bullets.
.270 really benefits from being handloaded due to the large selection of bullet available not made as factory ammunition.

>I cant hit a target from 1-400 yards with a 3-9 scope
Just sell your guns already. As long as the scope holds zero this should be easy.
