[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 417685, member: 1940"] while not my first choice for big game, it does work, with careful shot placement. I shot a 9" mountain goat last year at 305 yds. with one. through the shoulder and he went down as I was squeezing the trigger for the second shot. I sold that rifle to fund the Cooper .270 I am shooting now. today I took a marmot at 690 yds. with it. looking at buying another Cooper in .243. Sierra makes a 95 gr. Match King with a BC of .480, nearly identical to the .488 the 135 gr. MK's I'm shooting out of the 27, and they should be moving along just as fast. Lighter rifle, lighter recoil, same ballistics. Sounds good to me. [/QUOTE]
