The .270 Winchester...the 7x57's taller, sexier little sister.

I don't always shoot Mausers, but when I do...I prefer VZ-24s.

The 270 is what the 7 x 57 always wanted to be, but couldn't quite stack up. Kinda like comparing a pro team to a high school team.

They've probably never been fired and only dropped once, so you can get some good deals on them.

These frogs are all packing .270s no doubt� Doubtful,being French they are scared of recoil. So most likely they are carrying .223AI's and with a 1-7" twist.

How do they say?....(my French is rusty)......Les 7x57 est tres bien! Or as Maurice Chevalier would have said...."Thank Heaven For Leetle Girls".
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

Those would be "Special" forces. They can use .270s in Frogland.
Special as in "Special" olympics, or " Isn't that special�?"

A 7x57 man's women... A .270 fem's women... So I've been thinking about getting a .270...
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.
