[QUOTE="David_h, post: 2581833, member: 123918"] New member here also. OP- are you off to build your 270 WSM with 1:8 twist? I think that to use the heavier bullets you may have to start reloading as most factory ammo in 270 WSM is made for the 1:10 twist. I saw your thread because I actually now have both calibers. Last year got my first 30 caliber (not counting the 30-30 Marlin) in a 300 WSM BAR. Very pleasant to shoot without any muzzle brake because of the gas action. Still working on reloads to get better than 1.5 MOA. Now I just ordered my new 6.8 Western in X-Bolt Long Range which I also hope to shoot without a muzzle brake. The way they are rolling out new cartridges maybe we will see 7mm Western and 7.62 Western. BTW I still have my old Ruger M77 in .270 which is a great shooter. [/QUOTE]
