I think the 270 is a solid choice but reading these threads sometimes I wonder why it's the automatic default, and choosing anything else requires justification? The logic seems to be that it's ballistically a close 2nd place to the PRC, so the 270 wins. The burden of proof is always on the cartridge it's being compared to, and the challenger has to not only beat it, but beat it by a wide margin.

If a guy doesn't own either one, why would he pick the 270 other than factory guns and ammo? Not everyone owns a 270 to begin with.

The PRC is a lot of trouble? How so? We've got KISS advocates on here who have time to rack up tens of thousands of posts, but they don't have time to reload, rebarrel or wring out a new rifle.

Like I said, just makes me wonder.
