[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1504770, member: 103947"] The .270 is an excellent big game rifle. It's just not a long range rifle based on the lack of bullet selection and frankly good BC offerings. The LRAB bullets are way short of advertised BC values. This has been proven by Brian Litz in his range results. Berger makes a good optional LR bullet for the .277 caliber. The .264/.284 caliber bullets offered are much better suited for LR shooting based on there high BC offerings. Again, it doesn't make the .270 less of a hunting rifle, only limited in range vs the other two caliber choices. The 270WSM definitely is the better option in the .270. [/QUOTE]
