Killing power indeed!! This whole ordeal has gotten my older brother, (who religiously believes in his .270 Win), pretty dang jealous. But he just simply couldn't have shot the Old Warrior when the time came for him to get a good hunting rifle. My time came, and it was bequeathed upon me! smile Off to Bass Pro to pick up some 168/180 TSXs and 7828SSC, and its to the press for me.
