[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 401172, member: 13632"] I shoot the 140 Berger out of a 270 WSM at 3307fps, I haven't got it on enough game to know all the variables but so far under 400 yrds they go in and then shread everything inside of a 8in circle and you find the jacket under the of side, DRT :D The 270 WSM get's there in a flat hurry, I've got almost 800 rounds through mine and it still surprises me some times, and man it hits hard. The first couple deer I shot with my dad spotting and he was just shock at how hard they hit, kinda gives ya the giggles. I favor the 270 anyday of the week over a 7mm when it comes to putting game on the ground, every year I try to salavage meat off of critters that have been pounded by 7mm's that couldn't get it done in one shot. It's my very biased opinion but there is something that isn't quite right with the 7mm when you look at terminal performance vs a 270 cal. [/QUOTE]
