The problems with the .270 came from before WW II on into the late '60's & early '70's when people made 50 yard shots with 130 grain bullets an those cup and core bullets blew up. It's amazing how those early issues are still talked about and associated with the .270.

Gimme a .270 with a 130 grain TSX and I'll take on anything in North America with confidence.
