Have we debated the .270 enough?
New thread , new caliber for discussion?
How about the .300 Springfield?
The .300 Whelen is better.

Agreed.
I like both the 270 and 280. For the average fella shooting bucks and bulls out to 500’ish I don’t see enough difference to matter myself. I think Lapua said get good with your chosen one. I think that’s pretty good advice.
I’ve got a 7.5 twist Krieger in my basement and some 27 Nosler dies. Pretty soon that one will get made up. I have no illusions that a 28 Nosler or anything 7mm won’t whip it but I’m pretty sure with anything decent around a .650 BC at around 3k or so I’ll be okay. I’m doing it just for the helluva it and know all of the things against it but I’m still a 270 guy and since I have my beloved Mashburn I’m pretty well covered but it’s still fun figuring something else out. Barrels are cheaper than any number of other bad habits I could have.
