Pair those up with a good 270Win[/b] and you are GTG anywhere in the world.  That is all you need to know. Fixed it for ya Leopard Britches.  Yeah, when you have a 270 W, there is NO need for any lesser cartridges!!

It kinda is like fruitcake. Nobody likes it, people give it away, and eventually it sits in the back of the cabinet. Only old people like to eat fruitcake and it turns into a turd anyway.
Viva the 27 FC......

...... Nobody likes it, people give it away, and eventually it sits in the back of the cabinet. ...... Only on here....but this place is loaded with Fruitcakes anyway. They's everywhere!! These threads will go on forever, I expect there will be another one this week. Maybe a 260 vs 7-08???? I remember reading G&A as a kid and how they skullphucked 9mm vs 45acp for years. 1911 vs Glock, anyone??? < 500 yards Sub MOA +/- 48" drop +/- 20" drift (10 MPH) +/- 2,000 FPS velocity @ 500 >1000 FPE at 500 Easily arranged by a slew of chamberings/bullets/rigs, even for a short knocker like myself. I'd say anything with those numbers is chitting in tall cotton. But its just numbers and I'll take the "right" rig in the "wrong" caliber anyday. Flame on!!

Got the Pre '64 Featherweight .30-06 Friday. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg546/elkhunterinnm/IMG_0480.jpg) Oh and you have probably killed more big game than me.  Classic! How does it shoot?
"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown

Is there any real world difference between these 2 cartridges
I don't handload Thanks!! There is a real world difference using factory ammo. With both rifles zeroed for 200 yards, the 270 at 400 yards drops as advertised, at 400 the 7/08 drops more than advertised.

It is a hilarious constant,that is always them who "do" and "know" the least,who are the ONLY ones to start "thinking" that everything is the "same".
Boolits matter more than headstamps and should it coddle your SD Fantasies,Bell flung FMJ's...mainly because that's what the [bleep] he had to work with,at that time and place. That being a function of availability who's byproduct was projectile integrity,rather than a mathematical extrapolation of moot designators. Hint. Necessity being the Mother of Invention. Re-Hint.
Starting velocity is but one facet of the Terminal Equation,arrival speed and projectile integrity,being far more KEY in such determinations.
As per always...boolits matter more than headstamps. Hint.
The Terminal Triology is thusly and unwavering in it's constants.
1) Placement
2) Projectile selection
3) Headstamp
Folks who "know" as "much" as you,will ALWAYS be better served in asking questions,rather in giving "answers". Congratulations?!?
Hint.
Just sayin'.
Yesssssssss...you've been led to water.
Thank me later.
Laffin'!
(Addendum: For more Window Lickers)
The only "designator" more [bleep] stupid than SD,is [bleep] "energy"...though it certainly horns Window Lickers up.
Laffin'!
The Paper Hat Brigade is on [bleep] FIRE!
Please expound on the real world difference between to two? Then you can go back to your fairy dust and frog's hair. -Put them both in the same place and you will have the same result. -Use the same projectile and you will have the same result. -Headstamps? this thread is all about how they do not matter much. Clueless...how about some reading comprehension instead of argueing with yourself.
