With those 170s, the 270 WSM is also looking like a viable long range performer. There's a guy over at SH running the 175 Matrixes in a comp style rig... Pretty cool.
But I'd still love a 6.5-06
Yeah I've often wanted to build a 270 wsm but the bullets were the hold back. I saw the stuff over on the hide. I gotta tell ya that this year many of my perspectives changed. This 6.5-06 has me tweaked. I was never a fan of the LA but seeing the advantages and options the 6.5-06 gave me with the selection of bullets I'm not sure there isn't anything I couldn't hunt.
I was looking hard and long at a 260 rem then the Swede. I about pulled the trigger on the Swede. Talked to Roger and then was sold on the 6.5-06.
If I draw the sheep tag in the near future. I'll build the 260 if and only if to reduce weight in as many area's as possible.
