I'm going to kick the turd over and stir the shyte. Who the [bleep] was the guy at the party on here that came up with the lame gay 270 shooter joke? It might have been funny at the time but it's sort of lame now. Lame is as lame does - and some don't see the lame in this case. I don't remember the "who" that originally noted the condition, but the in-depth report on that gayness was based on much observation and quite a bit of ballistic and psychological research. A lot of agreement resulted, along with quite a number of folks posting supportive anecdotes from actual experience. I've not owned or even shot a .270, and none of the above caused me to form any strong personal opinion. But, observation of comments by those offended has caused me to think there probably is something to those original findings.

Short people get tired of others pointing out how short they are too.
Broncos are officially the worst team in the nation this year.

270 fan for a long time. I hate to say it ...The 6.5 creed puts it to shame at the range.
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

It wasn’t the shooters, just the cartridge. Ya, it sucks. Sorry.

.270 Winchester, the Rock Hudson of cartridges. All right I’ll come out now, I had a 270 for awhile, years ago but it was too manly for me. I replaced it with a 6.5, ......., Swedish Mauser. Am I Rock Hudson’s buddy? Reminds me of the old joke, Rock Hudson didn't have very many friends, but he had Neighbors up the azz..........."

I have not seen this reference...except for here and this means zero.
A 150 Nosler Partition at 3000 fps from a 22" barrel does not have a limp wrist, imo.
Many rifleman know the value of any 30/06 derivative.
.25 to .35 /06's meet or beat any of the silly new short/ fats out there, imo.
I think a man can look more queer in short pants and sandles. There you go...I said it.

Maybe you misunderstood and they were referring to these. Nike says they decided to focus on the “colors and symbols that have been reclaimed and historically repurposed by the LGBTQ community.” The Nike BETRUE Air Max 270. ![[Linked Image from c.static-nike.com]](https://c.static-nike.com/a/images/t_prod_ss/w_480,c_limit,f_auto/ctbc0gmohkkz3ep9shrf/air-max-720-betrue-release-date.jpg)

.270 Win. is ok. My daughter has one that stays at my house. I used it with good effect on night shooting hogs because it has an illuminated reticle. Worked fine with 150 grain Winchester power points. When I acquired a VX-R 4-12 with fire dot for my .30-06 the .270 went back in the closet. My daughter prefers her .243 so the .270 is just a loaner or spare now. Around here it's kind of like having a colored girlfriend, pretty good but you don't want anybody to know about her.
Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
