[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 391339, member: 13632"] The 270 WSM is a good mid range chambering in the 600-800 yrd range. I would not even think twice about deer in that range, I try to stay in a little more on elk. At my elevation I can push it a little farther than that. I'm setting one up for shooting the 169.5 Wildcats and shooting a heavy for cal bullet like that it will perform very well out to and past the 1000yrd mark even on elk. I shoot mine at 1000yrds all the time and it is very capable of delivering accuracy at that range. I push mine and it runs with the 6.5's in the ballistics department. It would really shine if we had more bullets in the 150-170 gr class. I was surprised just how good the 270 WSM is, I think the numbers don't quite tell the whole story with the .277 cal stuff as they seem to out perform what most people think they should when looking at the numbers. I like it way better than the 300 WBY I was shooting before and have had better kills with it also. Just my two cents :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
