[QUOTE="huntem, post: 127819, member: 3741"] [ QUOTE ] I'll chime in on this...... If you want something just a bit different why not consider the 270AI? With more bullets being developed for that caliber and the fact that it is just a good caliber for your needs. If your barrel is anything like mine, give it a super good cleaning (copper removal etc) and it will probably go to pot immediately. That is, if you haven't already done that.
