Are you crazy? Only shoot bullets that are designed for your caliber of gun. My buddy recently tried shooting a .308 out of his 30-06. It worked out great,it cost him over $200 to get it fixed.
.270 Win is the original round from Winchestor. .270 WSM (Winchestor Short Magnum) is the same bullet but with a shorter and fatter casing that allows a more efficient burn rate of the powder which in turn provides better performance. They are very different and are not interchangable.
The WSM is necked down. Not worth the extra loot for the rounds. A standard .270 Hornady SST is one of the most efficient and capable rounds on the market. .270 caliber rifles are readily availible in all the popular brands, and the hornady ammo is only 25 bucks or so a box. I shoot a .270 and use the 140 grain sst's.
.270 WIn is the standard .270 that has been around for many years. I have three of these and they perform very, very well. The .270 WSM is the newer Winchester Short Magnum. Shorter action with more power. It should shoot even flatter than the impressive .270 Win.
The 270 WSM is a bit faster than the 270 Win. and the bullets perform better when shot at longer ranges out of the WSM. The 270 WSM is also a shorter shell, making it faster to reload than the long action of the 270 Win.
A 130 - 140 grain bullet, regardless of brand, seems to have the best all around ballistics for the .270. soft points are fine for whitetails. Hit em right with one of these and they will go down in a heap.

A:
I would definitally say you can't go wrong with the winchester ballistic silvertips. As long as you hit that animal in the kill zone, it isn't going to go far at all! I use a 30-06 here in Az, and I have killed both deer and bull elk with the 150 gr. I don't know where you are hunting, but with a 270 you wont need anything more than 150 gr., all depends on how far you intend to shoot. It is rare to drop an elk where it stands, but I swear I did it with a lung shot last fall. Just don't gut shoot it, etc and that animal is gonna go night night. Good luck
You will need to practice with your Remington and try several different brands and loads to see what you are the most accurate with. Dropping a deer in it's tracks will not always happen. The best thing you can do for yourself, and out of respect for the animal, is to become deadly accurate and able to hit a deer's vitals area every time. You must be sure of your ability in all kinds of weather, distances and light conditions. This will only happen after you and your Remington have become "old friends" I have heard the Barnes Triple Shock Bullet is one of the most reliable bullets. I can also tell you I have never failed with Remington's CoreLokt ammo over many years. See what works best for you and stick with it.
Like all guns, try different ammo at the range and see which performs best in your gun. Since 22 ammo is cheap, you will have fun shooting and won't break your wallet. I have tried alot of different ammo, and for 22s I like CCI. Although Remington, and the other manufactures make good ammo also.
