[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 3075491, member: 9308"] The .270 WSM is well loved by those that use it and a few have popped up for sale over the years but not a lot. The .300 WSM is more popular which is why you see it more often. 130gr, 140gr & 150gr bullets work best in the .270 WSM. Rifles usually have a 1 in 10 rifling twist so heavier bullets aren't likely to stabilize as well. (If one wants to shoot heavier .277 bullets, the 6.8 Western would be the cartridge to get.) As for on game performance, the .270 WSM is very good! People that have used it are quite happy with the accuracy & killing power delivered. Your new rifle will serve you well as a hunting tool.
