Also, the lesser muzzle flip of a lighter round like the 270 makes for faster follow-up.

Besides, if the thinking is that a 150 Partition from a 270 won't kill our middling sized grizzles, there's a certain bridge over the Hudson River that should be considered for acquisition laugh


Your life - hunt the way you want to.
I wear seat belts too. Not out of fear of my skills, but because the other guy is a drunk texter. I don't call that fear - just prepared.
