.270 Winchester - Testing New Bullets and Powders

"... With scope, the rifle weighed 8 pounds, 11 ounces, about a pound more than O’Connor preferred. However, one thing I discovered when using heavier bullets with new “Wonder Powders” in other .270s is higher velocities make an O’Connor-style rifle kick more like a 7mm Remington Magnum. The extra weight of the Mossberg, and its thick, soft recoil pad made shooting a bunch of test loads more pleasant, and probably more accurate, especially toward the end."
