Bought a 1A 270 when I was 14. Read too many gun mags (early loonie-ism), a lot of Sundra, decided it was the rifle for me. (Based on said reading wanted a 280 found a used 270). Primary deer rifle for most of my hunting life, have killed about 60 with it and an elk. Added a 1s 300 wm for elk have killed 8 with it, all with 1 accubond. Have recently been using a few other things as well. 270 hates monos...
If you start with a 1a ( I did hunt 2 yrs with a win 94 1st) it does make most other rifles feel weirdly long and unwieldy).
