[QUOTE="MTLIVIN, post: 1195577, member: 42384"] Im wondering what guys have for real life experience shooting elk with the 270 WSM and what loads you prefer. I bought a Tika T3 270 WSM for my wife and will be starting load development soon. I'm aiming for a load good to 500 yards under all conditions, including hitting heavy bone. I've had some poor results with a 270 win on bear and elk so I switched to the 30 & 7mm cals, but my wife cannot handle a lot of recoil so I reluctantly bought the WSM for her knowing many other people have great experiences with the ol' .277 cal. PS, I haven't shot this rifle at all yet but I did have a limbsavers pad installed to help on the recoil side, I plan to load 150's around 3000fps and 140's around 3100 to keep recoil manageable.
