[QUOTE="Matt_G, post: 168856, member: 410"] The .270 Win is a great caliber. I have used one for 30 years, and it has always performed well, provided I do my part. But you can say that about any caliber. A .460 Weatherby isn't enough gun if the shooter can't hit his target. :) My Dad always used a .270 Win for elk hunting here in Colorado. The first year he went with some guys from his work, they just about ran him out of camp for not having "enough" gun. After four elk in the first six years, with no lost animals, they finally shut their pieholes. Another nice thing about the .270 is the fact you can load 'er up with 90 gr. Sierra HP's and turn prairie dogs inside out out to substantial ranges. Now granted the .270 wouldn't be my first choice for a varmint rifle, but for a guy who wants one gun for everything in the CONUS, I can think of a lot worse choices than the .270. [/QUOTE]
