Description
The Select Plus line from Weatherby pairs premium components with handpicked bullet options to deliver the kind of performance you get from careful handloading. This 150-grain Nosler Partition load gives you magnum-level velocity with a bullet design engineered for hunting effectiveness across a range of impact velocities.
Nosler Partition bullets have a proven track record in the field because of their two-core design. The front core expands on impact, while the integral partition keeps the rear core intact for deep penetration. This gives you reliable energy transfer without sacrificing the penetration you need on larger game. At 3245 fps, you're getting the kind of velocity that makes a flat trajectory and retained downrange energy a reality.
150-Grain Partition for Medium and Large Game
The 150-grain weight strikes a balance that works across a wide range of hunting situations. It's at home on deer and elk-sized game out to extended distances, and the Weatherby Magnum case delivers the extra push that separates it from standard .270 Winchester loads. You get roughly 200 fps more velocity for better trajectory and energy retention, which translates to cleaner hits at longer ranges.
What Sets Select Plus Apart
Weatherby doesn't cheap out on Select Plus ammunition. You get quality brass that can be reloaded, precise loading for consistency, and bullets that are trusted by guides and experienced hunters. The goal during development was straightforward: create factory ammunition that shoots flat, hits hard, and groups tight. Paired with a Weatherby rifle, this ammo lives up to that standard.
Long-Range Ready
If you're planning shots beyond typical hunting distances, the velocity and energy in this load keep working for you. The flat trajectory means less holdover adjustment, and the energy retention means you're still effective well past 300 yards on appropriate game sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 150-grain Nosler Partition good for elk-sized game?
Yes. The 150-grain Partition with this velocity provides excellent penetration and energy transfer on larger game. Bullet construction is key on elk, and the Partition's two-core design handles that responsibility well. It works especially effectively when you can keep shots within reasonable distances where velocity is still doing the work.
How does this compare to standard .270 Winchester ammunition?
The .270 Weatherby Magnum delivers roughly 200 fps more velocity than standard .270 Winchester loads, which means flatter trajectory and better downrange energy. You'll see more bullet drop with the Winchester at distance, and the Weatherby maintains energy better past 300 yards. Both can work for hunting, but magnum velocity gives you a genuine advantage at extended ranges.
Can I reload the brass from this ammunition?
Yes. Weatherby loads this ammunition in quality brass casings that are suitable for reloading. The brass quality is good enough for multiple reloads when proper care is taken. Always follow appropriate safety precautions and load data when reloading magnum cartridges.
What's the effective range for this load on medium game like deer?
The 150-grain Partition is capable at distances well beyond typical hunting ranges, with good energy retention past 350 yards. For deer-sized game, practical effective range depends on your shooting ability and zero distance, but this load's flat trajectory and energy make longer shots feasible compared to lighter or standard-velocity loads.
