[QUOTE="Michael O'Connor, post: 1574899, member: 103722"] No Sir, I haven't but I have been waiting for years (decades) to see high B.C. 257 and 277 bullets. I studied the barrel life of the 257 Weatherby and 270 Wizzum and I don't think owners lie about barrel life. I have seen shot out 257 Weatherby barrels and they ain't pretty. As I have no experience with the 270 WSM, I reliy on the common honesty of their owners. The 270 EOL 170 gr. Berger appears to be a great bullet (1-8" twist) with a decent form factor and bearing surface. It appears it may be less harmful to a barrel than the 168 gr. 7mm Berger bullets, but that isn't settled law as I have only used 168 JLK's. My only interest is in efficient cases and good bullet design. Anything past reasonable hunting distance is target shooting anyways. The study on .257 131 gr. Blackjack bullets began last June, and I am awaiting information on the 25 SST, 25 Creedmore, 25 XC and 25 SLR. Good Luck with your 270. [/QUOTE]
