Does anyone on here shoot the Winchester XP3? I shoot the .270 at 130gr and the .308 at 150gr.

A couple of years ago my great uncle used my .270 with 130 grain XP3's to fill his mule deer A and B tags. Penetration and killing power was very good with this bullet.

I shoot these out of my 270 and have had great success as well as good grouping on paper. I also shoot the XP1s in 55gr out of my 22-250.

great round to shoot. A bit on the pricey side but well worth it. Only bad thing is that I usually cant find ammo for my .308, so I usaully buy 2 to 3 boxes of it when I do run across them. Now the .270 they stock that all day long at Academy.
