Factory loads make a difference?
I am looking at using a different factory for a 270. I was using winchester supreme 130 gr ballistic silvertips and they work great.
Considering going to another bullet, maybe a federal premium 130 gr nosler load or a Nosler Custom 130 grain load. They appear to be essentially the same load.
The primary reason is I would prefer to have brass casing for the 270 my daughter uses and the silver casing for the 270 WSM I plan on using. I just don't want to have any confusion when grabbing bullets for our guns and this would make it easier.
Bad enough we are using identical Saka A7 rifles & Burris scopes. Hers has a brake which is the quick way to tell them apart.
If one load is considered better than the other please let me know.
Thanks, Travis.

I personally use the Nosler partition Bullet for all big game hunting .You will not be sorry. 0 -
Yes, that would suffice, and if you load yourself, you can get both the Ballistic Silvertip, and the Ballistic Tip. Also, if you are going to switch bullet types, as suggested by perryshooter, The Nosler Partition is a good bullet, and the Barnes TSX, or TTSX(tipped TSX), are even better. A 120 grainer out of the 270 will do the work of a 150 regular lead core bullet...and then some.

Actually, the best solution for your problem, would be to educate her on the differences between the two, and reading the chambering on the rifle's barrel, and matching it to the headstamp on the ammunition. It will also pay dividends in the future, when your daughter is buying ammunition for her rifle, as there are several 270 labeled ammunitions out there...270 Winchester, 270 Winchester Short Magnum, and 270 Weatherby Magnum are just three of the popular ones.
Another scenario would be, is when she is buying her father a new rifle, of a different caliber, she will know what ammunition to look for.
I truly believe, instead of just doing for her, that educating her as t how to do for her self would be a better option.

Perhaps you could segregate the rounds by placing [bright red] magic marker on the heads of one particular type. If I'm reading your post accurately, it should be acceptable, as you're primary concern is for sight recognition.
Easy solution? Maybe..maybe not.

We use both, Nosler ballistic tip and partition bullets they are easy to tell apart. As Perryshooter mentioned you will not be sorry. 0
