If you load the .270 down 100 fps with a good 130-140 grain bullet, such as a Barnes TTSX or Nosler E-Tip, it will kick like a 7mm-08 and neatly kill any elk or plains game.
The .270 Winchester is a pretty good version of the .270-08 AI. It's even popular in Africa!
not a bad point. I shoot 130 grain Nos flat base seconds over 44 grains of RL15 a very light load, it shoots well in my rifle, have not killed anything with it yet.
