Not going to comment on the efficacy of the .270 Win, but sometimes the Campfire provides humor offline as well as on.

Was at Sportsman's and walking toward reloading an employee asked if he could help with anything. I asked if they'd gotten any components in.

He replied, and I'm quoting as close as I can: "No powder, but we got a big order of Hornady bullets yesterday. Lots left. We got brass over the weekend, but all the good stuff's gone. All that's left is some oddball stuff nobody shoots and some old school antique stuff."

Down the brass aisle... they had a bag of .38 special, 2 bags of .38-55 Win, 4 bags of .243 WSSM and 5 bags of .270 Win.

Thought of this thread and had to crack up!

You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...
