I just bought an older model 10 chambered in 270 wsm and I've always read good reviews about Nosler Partition bullets and I have a box of 130 grain partition bullets from a 270 project a few years ago but never shot any game with them so I don't know much about them. This model 10 WSM has a short barrel looks to be 19 or 20 inches and I'm just not experienced enough shooter to know about bullet expansion vs bullet speed from short barrel guns so I'm asking for help from the 270 WSM savage 10 owners. I will add that the gun will used to hunt med. size whitetail deer, bear and hog in the mountains of WNC where 100 yards is a long shot around here......maybe shoot a yote on lake bed at 200. So I guess I'm looking for some load data for the gun at minimum range and I was hoping the 130 grain nosler partition would be a good choice being I have some. I'll also note that I don't want to blow a 100 # whitetail in half but I like to find blood where he was standing if he's not laying there.
Thanks
