[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 528141, member: 2011"] With out a doubt!!! The 270 Win that is at my house, been there for 45 years, on second barrel is dead nuts on milk jugs @ 630 yards any day of the week. And with plenty of energy to do in a muley of any size. Hornady 140 BTSPs and 140 NABs are tough to beat even with their lowly bc of less than 0.500. We haven't tried Bergers in it yet. Go with Winchester brass of any head stamp, it is lighter and tougher than Remmy brass by a good bit. More powder capacity = more velocity. RL-22 is the powder of choice as the rifle is used during hunting season when temperature swings are minimal. Your limiting factor will be the reticle on the scope. With a BDC type reticle, such as the Zeiss or others will remove the delay time for the shot by removing clicking time. Run the number on a 0.496 G1 BC and again on a 0.600 bc with 140 grain velocity of a reasonably achievable 3100+ MV. It'll light your fire! [/QUOTE]
