I never was on the 270 band wagon...for no really good reason... I guess it goes back to the beginning in the old days you just had one rifle...mine was a 30-06... And never really could figure how the 270 would be one ounce better...I figured what ever the 270 could do the 06 could do better... Now if my first rifle was a 270.. My thoughts would probably be much different... If I were to start from scratch and design the perfect North American carterage it would be real close to the 270... Just a slightly bigger bullet .284.. Walla 280 rem.... I have acquired several 270 s over the years...mainly because they were cheap...several Sakos....but to this day I have never hunted a single day afield with a 270...I have intended to but just have my favorites...usually either a 30-06 or 257 Roberts.. Fads will come and go but the 270 and 30-06 will live forever...
