[QUOTE="Jerry M, post: 1683161, member: 6330"] To answer the OP: Because a 130 grain .277 diameter bullet at 3,100 fps has been successfully killing small game to moose since 1925 at normal hunting ranges. LRH has come into its own over the last 20 years. Only in the past few years have bullet manufactures made anything heavier than a 150 gr spitzer in .277 (excluding the 160 gr round nose - not a LR bullet). These bullets are certainly not main stream. IMHO for LRH a 7mm-08, .280 Rem, .280 Ackley, of a 7mmx06 would be a better choose than the .270 Win. Not for 80% or more of general hunting public, but for LRHing. Good luck Jerry [/QUOTE]
