That 300 yard is even better than your 100 yard target 100 was 1.161moa, 300 is .735moa , even with that outside one. Good shooting.
270 win ammo at 1990 prices.

It doesnt take much wind(less than 5 mph its 90 degrees to the bullet) to move a couple inches that far. Might have been that?
Actually, I did have a little breeze today. About as calm as I could get lately. Report called it at 5 from the north. Right to left on my target. That very well could have moved it a couple inches on me! Hard to get dead calm here. Ok, feeling better about it now. Felt pretty good, anyway! Rifle seems to be a pretty good shooter.

When these came back in stock I grabbed a case to try. Shipped really quick and seems to be under MOA
Will certainly grab more if 243 and 308 sales stock again

What brand of brass is used for these out of curiosity? Any headstamp info? Anyone open them up and try to figure out what the load is (powder and grains)? I might have to grab some of these...

Mine say "Sig 270 Win" on the head stamp.

Sig makes their own brass at the Arkansas plant, as far as I can tell it's good quality brass. I weighed 10ea decapped, from two different lots for an average weight of 190.295gr. All were within 1.5% of each other.
At the price they were being sold and the accuracy out of multiple platforms, it's not worth trying to duplicate the load imo.
Yes, after Carl's post I was able to do some research and come to the same conclusion on the brass. Seems to have good reviews!
As for the powder question, I wasn't really interested in duplicating the load. It was more curiosity around potentially reloading those factory loads to lower the ES a little and potentially increase the speed. For the price of the ammo, it's cheaper than buying the components but if for some reason it doesn't shoot well, I'm just thinking ahead.

FYI Scheels has Sig soft point ammo in 6.5CM, 270Win, 308 and others for around $19-21/box
Decided that is too good of a deal to pass up, so just ordered a bunch. FYI, the original link isn't working, but they do still have that deal going. Here is an updated link: https://rogerssportinggoods.com/sig...=ammoseek&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=regular

Bumping this one back up with a request… did anyone happen to buy some of this Sig Elite 270 ammo with the 140gr TGKs that it didn’t shoot well for you, or maybe you sold your rifle? My rifle loves it, and at $13/box I wish that I had bought more. Anyone want to part with some? From my understanding loaded ammo can be shipped pretty easily.

You can still still buy it directly from SIG for ~$24 a box. Even that price is a helluva deal. If you are going to buy in bulk(multiple CASES+), call into SIG and place the order directly for much better shipping rates than the auto generated price online.

Thank you. I saw that, but that link claims that these are blems and “These imperfections do not create functional issues, however, there may be slight performance variations from the standard spec ammunition.” (Emphasis mine)You can still still buy it directly from SIG for ~$24 a box. Even that price is a helluva deal. If you are going to buy in bulk(multiple CASES+), call into SIG and place the order directly for much better shipping rates than the auto generated price online.

It depends on how much you are willing to sell and for how much
.I’m not in a bind necessarily, I have about 5 boxes left, but I like to shoot a lot and would like to use the same lot number if possible… I have to assume that the lot numbers would be the same since it was bought from the same source at the same time.
I definitely don’t want to imply that I’m in a bad way and talk somebody out of something that they are happy with. Just wanted to strike while the proverbial iron was hot
