[QUOTE="stomp442, post: 965469, member: 70571"] The 270 is a great cartridge and more than capable way past 500 yards. It really does everything you are wanting to do but the recoil can get quite snappy in a light rifle. For deer sized game to 500 and long range shooting my personal preference would be the 260 Remington. Light recoil with great ballistics and a lot of bullet choices. Brass can be easily made from any .308 based case in a pinch. If your stuck on the .270 I would load that thing with some 130gr berger classic hunters and use that for everything. With a BC near 500 it provides good down range ballistics and great velocities. [/QUOTE]
