[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 667102, member: 505"] I shoot both the 264 winchester and the 270 wby. Both do the same thing basically and serve the same purpose. I have not tried the new specialty bullets in the 270 wby but some like the matrix give it an advantage at long range on game. I love shooting both of them. I just tried the 130 grain cutting edge bullet in my 264 winchester which is a specialty high bc bullet per weight. It shot extreme accuracy at around 3400 fps which gives it some really nice ballistics. The 264 winchester is the 7mm remington necked to 264 so anything said about it can be directly applied to the 7mm remington. The old barrel life myth about the 264 winchester is just that, a myth. My 264 STW has way better ballistics than either of these and a good long range choice. However barrel life issues can come into play there with probably less than 1000 rounds with top accuracy. That is just a guess. Mine has a few hundred shots and still shoots .25 moa. [/QUOTE]
