Bob,
I was hunting last fall in the local mountains and heard a shot. Man, it was LOUD, so I said to myself: John, that must be a .270 Winchester!
John yeah I have been terrified by those loud 270's....just scared the shidt outta me. Touch one off and every animal within the drainage goes underground.
They must be pretty high strung nervous types Down Under.
Course, anyone with a brain, who hand loads, knows you can drop the slow burners in the 270,use 4064 instead,and get a reduction in muzzle blast....and maybe save some barrel life,too. It will resemble a 6.5x55 loaded top end....LOL.
Provided you are anal enough to worry about this silly crap.
