Never owned, shot or even held one but I think the 6.5x55 Swede would come really close.

The Swede is a sleeper, for sure. But I got to hear more about Steelhead's 43 Egyptian.

260 was, now everybody wants one. I say 270 Win. Its hated, bashed, trashed, and called nasty names.

270 here it's a great North America round but all the experts here would rather use 223

First place would be the 270 Winchester. Coming in second would be the .308 Winchester.

You guys are surprising me. Would never call the .270 underrated. Still quite popular in most areas, I would think. Now, gay...that's another story (not that there's anything wrong with that).  You 8x57 guys may be onto something...
It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...
Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.

They are only underrated on here among looney tune rifle nutz. .....this place does not really count. I have never seen a really experienced big game hunter scoff at either one.
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

That a function of the 7 mag being the most OVER rated cartridge.

The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

Can we squeeze the 300 Savage in here somewhere?
