How do you make something shooting a .277 projectile not gay? A number of ways... 1) DON'T make it a .270 Win.. 2) Give it a different case and a Tacticool Metric Designation like 6.8spc 3) Make sure its in a Black Rifle... 4) Remain in denial about any homosexual thoughts etc. to your cyber-friends. 5) Photograph it with non-gay items, like whiskey and dead animal skins... 6) Have Ingwe own one...makes it automatically uber-hetero and mega-cool... Simple really.....

Thanks, I feel much better about my favorite rifle in 6.8x84.4.

I dabbled a little with the 6.8, seemed to shoot okay. For one of those modest sized-cartridges though, I think next I'll work with a Grendel. Anything named after a legendary viking-eating monster can't be gay.

GPoobs,
Didya put it together Ingwe or is that one of the LTRs from Hurricane Katrina era?
Had a cool boss in '05 who had one in a tan stock that I coveted...
That caliber kills same-same as the 6.8 JOC at woods ranges in my limited exposure to it.

Some of us shoot certain calibers just because we like them and don't care what others think. Seriously nice rifle but shooting a .277 caliber cartridge with less powder capacity than the original Win makes you wonder about the shooter's orientation.

I took the pic with the camera far enough away that you couldn't see the powder burns....

Looks like you need to hold into the wind about a quarter inch.
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

Are you suggesting that having the reconstruction surgery makes it no longer gay?
