Push effective range to new extremes while delivering a more lethal blow on impact with Federal Premium Swift Scirocco II loads. The polymer-tipped bullets streamlined design and high ballistic coefficient produce flat trajectories, while retaining more velocity and energy downrange. Aided by its Signature Black Tip, the bonded Scirocco II expands at minimal velocities yet offers high weight retention at close range thanks to its bonded copper jacket. We also have the .308 Winchester Ammo in stock here.

The earliest iteration of the .270 Winchester cartridge was introduced with the Winchester Model 51 Imperial rifle probably in or about 1919. Only 24 Winchester Model 51’s were produced, and only a handful of those were chambered in and marked “.27 Cal”. Winchester’s .27 Caliber was renamed 270 Winchester with the Model 54, the replacement for the Model 51 Winchester rifle. Winchester Model 51 serial number 1 is marked .27 Cal as is serial number 3 which is in the collection of the Cody Firearms Museum at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming.

However, the .270 Winchester attained great popularity among hunters and sporting rifle enthusiasts in the succeeding decades and especially in the post-World War II period, ranking it among the most popular and widely used big game hunting cartridges worldwide, especially with the widespread popularity of rifle scopes. Shooters started noticing that the .277″ caliber cartridge was capable of shooting flatter than the popular 30–06.

The .270 Winchester, conceived solely as a big game hunting cartridge, became very popular, in part, due to the widespread praises of gun writer Jack O’Connor who used the cartridge for 40 years and touted its merits in the pages of Outdoor Life as well as other renowned gun writers of the time such as Col. Townsend Whelen. Check our .243 Winchester Ammo For Sale from us.
