    Remington 783 in 270

    Hi guys

    So a mate got himself a rem 783 in 270 recently, a package deal from somewhere.

    Anyway, was wondering if anyone had one in 270 and what factory ammo it likes to shoot, yes i know rifles are diffrent, but i also know that often modern rifles will mostly shoot well with the same ammo apart from a few outliers.

    Keen to hear how good/bad it shoots with what factory ammo

    Since its his 1st rifle and he has very little shootibg experience, ill get him to buy the cheapest ammo, should be the 130gr perfecta and use that to get familiar with the rifle, practice etc. (Ill shoot some groups with that combo to give him a baseline) and once he gets close we can worry about getting better ammo.

    In saying that, that ammo will kill a deer just fine. So depends on how it shoots of i get him to try better ammo later or not
    If you can't kill it with bullets, dont f*ck with it.
