Among people who use the 270 I don't think it has fallen out of favor at all. But with all the competition from newer developments that surround and duplicate the performance of the 270, it can be a tough sell for a cartridge that is probably going on 100 years old... What do you think will be the 270's replacement 100 years from now?
They have tried to "replace" the 270 with short mags. And those are mostly dead now. In 100 years the 270 will still be here and I don't really like the 270, since I grew up with the 30-06. Got to respect a cartridge such as the 270 winchester though. Been alive and kicking since 1925 for a good reason.
