[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 240803, member: 307"] allday, I own one in the W70 Coyote and it shoots pretty good. I have only shot reloads in it and it hovers just under 1/2" with loads it likes. It is a true short magnum and outperforms the .270 Winchester, which is a great LR cartridge in and of itself. There are now some good bullets for this caliber. Berger makes some VLD's and Nosler makes the AccuBond and Ballistic Tips. Barnes makes the TripleShocks and Swift makes the Scirocco II for this caliber. All would be good bullets. This dog has got some fight! I shot the .270Win for a few years so I know how it performs. The 270 shortmag has more energy and velocity., but not as much as the .270 Weatherby. This is personal opinion, but with a 26-28" barrel, 140gn handloads tuned to the rifle and bullets pushing max velocity, this cartridge is right there in the 7Mag class. I haven't taken any game with mine yet, but it's coming. I have a new .300WinMag, .270WSM and .243Win that all need to get "blood" this year! JohnnyK. [/QUOTE]
