I have owned several .270s in the 62 years I have been hunting..maybe 6 years ago, I found one in a pawn shop a guy made up just before he passed on.. It has become one of my three favorite rifles edging out the .25-06.. Mostly I have been shooting 140 Sierra HPBT.. But this fall I am loading a few 150 gr. Accubond and carrying at least some of the time for elk.. My daughter will be using the new to her 700 bdl .270 with .130 gr. Partitions...
