The 270 twisted 8" or better is THE schnizzle. You reap meaningful BC,at meaningful speed,with very modest powder consumption and very modest recoil/noise.
I've zero interest in shooting anything other than upper echelon 105gr BC's in any of mine and when doing so,alotta nice thangs happen by default,which reliably arrange terminal affects. One CAIN'T launch a boolit "too fast" and even the zookie Booger Hybird will hang tough. Whatcha' get is exceptional terminal affects,exceptional projectile reliability and an inherent option to launch 'em wherever/however you wish,in regards to backstop anatomy. They'll not get a guy in a pickle,like they do at higher impact velocities and that forgiving nature pays lotsa dividends,less any concessions. Hint.
While I've a goodly sense of Adventure,I'm happy at 2600-ish fps with same and don't exceed that threshold,nor do anyone I know with rifles chambered same. Bushed bolts bein' a given in all but (1),which is my Babiest Montucky and it's OEM issued pinhole/striker.
Every boolit thus far cited is simply a piece of fhuqking schit in comparison and if it's not 8" or better...rest assured you fhuqked up. Hint.
No thang to happily rattle through 500rds+ in a day,while doing dastardly deeds at obscene distances,as per whim. I LOVE it to 1500yds++ and have a coupla .224's and .243's to extrapolate in kind. Hint.

The 270's get shot wayyyyyyy the fhuqk more than anything else...BR bein' 2nd. Hint.
Am happy to gun a 270 against most anything and of course do. Hint.
Typical outing with Babiest Montucky 2nd from left(18.5" 1-8" Bart') and 19.25" MTU-esque 1-7.75 Bart' A5 Heavy 270 amidship. Some high zoot wares sprinkled from start to finish.
The 223AI remains my favorite fhuqking chambering of ALL Time(got 14 of 'em and only in 7,8,9,10,12 and 14" twist rates)...but the 270 is simply a phenom when RPM'd correctly and fed good boolits.
Fhuqk downloading a 243Win. Hint.
You reap 223 logistics and a goodly increase in BC.
The Redding tapered expander makes all a breeze,with minimal runout. It's a schit choice in a Baby Sako,dogschit CZ,AR and others with heavy COAL concessions,but when allowed to breathe,shines fhuqking brightly. 2.450" is a nice start,though everyone is better than that with 'Max,Hornie HP's and of course Boogers.
As DBM's go,it is a cinch in both AM steel 5's and MDT poly 10's...fhuqk AICS poly 10's,they are dog schit. Hint.
She's a PEACH as a Chassis Bitch too. Hint.
Easy for me to say...if only because I shoot 'em all and tend to give boolits a thunk.
Hint.
A 18.5" 270 squirtin' 105's with 40+ Mils available beyond it's 200yd zero,WILL sell alotta builds,alotta glass and alotta 105's. It's a mind blowin' fhuqking HAMMER.
Seen it.(grin)
Fhuqk Ping Pong Balls.
