[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1593049, member: 69192"] I got what you were saying, thanks for the response I really appreciate getting them, you supported my thoughts with someone trying to eek out the all mighty 100-200fps. With what I summed it up with my last post, the ole school calibers are tough to beat when considering all the variables. I'll go one further adding [U][I](gonna raise eyebrows[/I][/U]) that compared to all of the new designer calibers that are being promoted, if one were to do the same comparisons while considering the game that is being harvested and the average distances that the game is going to be harvested at by the average hunter the .270 Winchester is a tough caliber to beat; real ole school. For the average hunter, one has really get out there with a far reaching shot to be able to make an argument for beating the "ole school" .270 Winchester. Comparably speaking the .270 Winchester caliber has a lot to offer, ammunition and components are always readily available and affordable, and no one can say that about the new school, designer calibers at $70-80+ for a 25 count of brass,[U][I][B] "IF"[/B][/I][/U] the brass is available at all. When comparing ole school vs new school, one could make a good argument for the smaller calibers like .264WinMag, 6.5-06, 7mm mauser, 6.5X55mm as holding their own in the FPS race. [/QUOTE]
