The Hornady Outfitter 270 WSM 130 Grain CX ammunition is a lead-free rifle round engineered for hunters who demand reliability in challenging conditions. Built around Hornady's proven CX bullet—a copper-alloy expanding projectile—this load delivers the performance you need for medium to large game across a wide range of hunting scenarios, from backcountry expeditions to property hunts.
What sets the Outfitter line apart is its obsessive attention to environmental sealing. The nickel-plated cases are corrosion-resistant and waterproofed throughout, with sealed primers and sealed case mouths to keep moisture out and ignition reliable. If you hunt in wet conditions, high-altitude environments, or simply store ammo in variable climates, that watertight design matters. The 270 WSM case itself delivers the velocity and energy needed for clean, ethical kills on medium game (50–300 lbs) and larger game (300–1,500 lbs).
The 130-grain CX bullet is designed for uniform, controlled expansion and deep penetration, with the bonus of retaining over 95% of its weight through the target—meaning more energy transfer and less bullet fragmentation. Because it's lead-free, this ammunition meets California regulations and other jurisdictions with non-traditional ammunition requirements, making it a versatile choice whether you're hunting in restricted areas or simply prefer non-toxic rounds for your hunting grounds.
Each box contains 20 rounds of factory-loaded ammunition ready to load and shoot. If you're hunting with a 270 WSM and want ammo that won't let you down in rain, snow, or dust, Hornady Outfitter is a solid choice.
