[QUOTE="aroshtr, post: 322085, member: 9176"] I own both of these rifles and here is my advise. For DEER up to 600 yards, I would go with the 270wsm. If there is a change of shooting ELK, or deer past 700 yards, I would go with the 7mm STW. My 270wsm is a 24"bbl, and the STW is a 28". Neither have brakes. Another drawback of the STW is dealing with VLD bullets fitting in a standard magazine box. My loads with berger 180s are 3.840" OAL seated .010" into the lands! Now.... If I could only have one rifle I would do it differently. I would want a 7mmWSM, or a 6.5X284. It sounds like you are dead set on these two rifles, but from My experiance...... I WOULD GET A 7mmWSM!!! Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
