Whiskey, i had a couple guys on here tell me that a 150 partition at 2900 fps is used for elk, moose and all kinds of game from the Western US to up in Canada all the way to Alaska, sure made me feel a lot better about my little deer load ; ]

I’ve got 120 or so 140Gr A-Frames that I doubt I’ll be worried about putting through anything I’d ever hunt, and there’s also a couple hundred 130gr SST BTs that should tackle most stuff, as well. Other stuff is for practice….but I may send this early 700 Mtn to Mark Brown for fitting into a stock and some other stuff, since my ‘shop’ is packed in storage for a bit longer…I’ll have to slum with my 308s and such until it gets back home. Lol

270 is not going anywhere, it's a magnificent cartridge. But there are better options these days. Ballistics development did not stop in 1925.

Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Mine hasn't taken any game yet because I'm new to it but it did go bear hunting and all I ran into are sow/cub combos. No dice there but I'm hopeful. Still I've practiced a good deal with it and attached a rifle sling on it. I know for certain a large Samsung phone is in danger of being a casuality at 400yds and I've taken it to 500. After that it runs lower on mass and energy than I like but I appr3ciate it's mild nature and recoil. Just enough to feel like a serious rifle but not at all punishing.

It’s definitely not flashy but completely capable. And components for reloading are relatively easy to find. Hard not to like in my opinion.

Why Has the 270 Winchester Fell Out of Favor? It hasn't in real life. Only on the campfire forum.

I've bought LOTSA 270's,simply because they are GREAT Donors. That being said,I've never met anyone who took one seriously,let alone used one as a "mainstay". I've killed more schit with fhuqking 270's,than most guys who LOVE 270's. Hint. Fhuqking LAUGHING!
Bullets matter wayyyyyyy more than headstamps,if only to the chagrin of Window Licking CLUELESS Kchunts the world over. Hint.................

… But there are better options these days. Ballistics development did not stop in 1925. Yeah…and a 270 uses paper patches and round balls. LOL The very same ‘ballistic development’ that’s good for ANY other metallic cartridge is just as good for the 270…. which could arguably make the 270 ‘a better option’ than some newer, lesser stuff. ;)…..along with other obsolete stuff like the 30-06, 35 whelen, 308, 280, etc.

Simply conjure up your BEST "ballistic development" "better option" 270 Load and prepare to be bitch slapped endlessly,time and again. Then dangle pics of the Delusions. Hint.

Again,simply cite your "Amazing" 270 Win concoction and I'll slap you silly with your own fhuqking STUPIDITY. You Brokedick CLUELESS Crying Karens are a fhuqking HOOT! Hint.
P.S. and by the way dangle pictures of "your" wares. Hint.
