Takes all the fun out of hunting. Had 1 for 2 years
4 bucks
2 coyotes
1 blackbuck
8 rounds fired (missed 1st round on 1 of the coyotes)
Never get to track wounded game anymore. frown


I am continually astounded at how quickly people make up their minds on little evidence or none at all.

This blue whale, the largest animal on Earth, was felled with a reduced velocity .270 Win load. I believe it took one shot of a 110 grain bullet at about 2800 FPS. Standard velocity rounds would've been far too powerful & woulda destroyed too much meat:

Hi BobinNH,

The hunter spotted it spouting about a mile away. She closed the distance to about a half-mile. The blue whale breached. She fired her .270 Win at that distance. Her bullet penetrated through-and-through its thorax ripping its heart to shreds; hence, there was no blood trail. The 100 grain .270 Win killed it instantly. She lassoed the body and set sail for shore. From what I've been told, its a full body mount on a bathroom wall above her bathtub in her mansion. She wanted to keep it close to water ;-)

Do I sound like fisherman?

They've probably never been fired and only dropped once, so you can get some good deals on them.

Doubtful,being French they are scared of recoil. So most likely they are carrying .223AI's and with a 1-7" twist.

The 270 was never a military cartridge,so it can't be that.

The 7x57....OTOH....was.

So, it COULD be that...Mmm. sick smile

I just sold a NIB Marlin X7 270 to a 303British shooter who was having scope mount problems 3 days before his moose hunt. Reported this morning that he's getting 1" 100yd groups with factory WW 150gr ammo. Only ammo he tried.

He's now seen the light. Another convert! grin

Here is some information for all you 270 bashers.

Quote


Name calling is a cognitive bias and a technique to promote propaganda. Propagandists use the name-calling technique to incite fears or arouse positive prejudices with the intent that invoked fear (based on fear mongering tactics) or trust will encourage those that read, see or hear propaganda to construct a negative opinion, in respect to the former, or a positive opinion, with respect to the latter, about a person, group, or set of beliefs or ideas that the propagandist would wish the recipients to believe. The method is intended to provoke conclusions and actions about a matter apart from an impartial examinations of the facts of the matter. When this tactic is used instead of an argument, name-calling is thus a substitute for rational, fact-based arguments against an idea or belief, based upon its own merits, and becomes an argumentum ad hominem.[1


grin

Now the polar opposite is the 7x57 thong thread. Based in fact and impartial thoughts, as it is a known fact that 7x57 users like thongs. Leopard print I believe. cool
