When you say "everything is tight", have you messed with the action screws? Rifles with poor bedding an be very sensitive to screw tension.
The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

I am going to try some different loads, I would like to stay with a bonded bullet or try something like a Barnes tipped triple shock, just i case i decide to go elk hunting with it again.

(maybe it doesn't make as much difference as i think i dont know)

I have the same rifle, also in 270 Win, and I haven't had an issue like you are describing. Before anything else, I would at least try a different load and see if it does the same thing. I always had good luck with Winchester Power Points- I used to get them from Wal Mart for $11.99/box but I think they're now around $20/box. Although I am sure you can get them for a little less on sale.
I only suggested the Power Points because they are cheap and in my experience, as accurate or more accurate than anything else. Just shoot up the whole box then you won't have any left for hunting.
