Thanks guys...just what I was trying to get across to a fellow the other day...a 160gr (.270/7mm) are so close in diameter that they are the same, in the field for sure. Yeah the 270/160 isn't as BC as some 160/7mm, but close enough that under 400yds it doesn't matter. And for a "point and shoot" guy it sure doesn't matter, ha. I guess I'm excited that this is the "very first" 270 I've had (this is #6) that shot the 150/160s well! They all shot well ( well, one Mod 700 MR was a shotgun) with 130-140s. A few shot the 110 OK, but not tight enough for prairie dogs & such. And I just can't get over how fast this rifle shoots those heavies! I "cut my teeth" in bolt guns/reloading with a .280 then on up through the AI to magnums and I learned how to trust a 7mm bullet on game. Anything comparable gives me a warm fuzzy.
