Speer Spitzer Boat-Tail soft point bullets in .270 caliber, 130 grains (Speer part no. 1458), are designed for rifle hunting, using the tapered heel that gives the boat-tail its name to reduce aerodynamic drag and hold a flatter trajectory at extended ranges. The jacket tapers from a thicker shank section, keeping retained weight high after impact instead of shedding mass on contact. At 130 grains, this is a classic weight for .270 Winchester deer and pronghorn hunting, where the boat-tail profile helps flatten trajectory across the longer shots that open country often demands.
