[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2068719, member: 105681"] The 270 win can push a 165 or 170 grain VLD style bullet just as fast as 6.5 CM can push a 143 or 147. So the author is just admiring the velocity of the Western and WSM and not actually seeing the potential of the 80 year old 270 win. A 26" 1:8 twist 270 WCF can still do plenty of long range performance with the heavier bullets. Rldr 26 or 23 really bring this old dog to life. Great cartridge. Great killer. Don't let magazine authors get to you. A lot of nonsense out there for paychecks. [/QUOTE]
