Dan Lilja managed to use the [bleep] out of the .270 and lowly 150gr ballistic tip for longe range hunting,before the practice became all of the rage it is today..
The .270 has never really been considered by the longe range benchrest shooters.For decades .30 cal was required by regulation and when that was amended,shooters moved right into the 7mm and 6.5mm.one of the founding fathers of the 6.5x.284 still competes nationally.The .270 has never had much following outside of hunting and america for that matter.
