My rifle is pretty accurate with both but I pretty much keep to 130g now. The .270 made it's reputation on flat shooting 130, and it used the round's ballistics to it's advantage.

If I was only going out for Moose or even elk, I'd probably re-sight in for 150. For an all around bullet, 130 is probably best though.
