[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 338442, member: 505"] At 500 yards you will have fun with either. If you are not putting a brake on it do the 270 wsm. I have 7mm stw's with 26" barrels. At 500 yards shoot the light fast bullets and take the drop variable out of your shooting. Then all you got is wind. One of mine is set up to shoot the 120 grain barnes tsx at over 3700 fps. You can be nearly point blank to 500 yards. Use a mil dot scope and you can set it where you are almost one dot high to high 300's and not quite one dot low at 500. 500 yard shots are very trivial with this method. My 16 year old son shot his first antelope right through the heart this year at 512 yards with a 257 wby shooting 100 grain bullets near 3800 fps. Same principle. [/QUOTE]
