[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 1473609, member: 1940"] I’ve been shooting a custom .270 WSM for a few years now. Love it. I’ve killed a few elk with it shooting 140 gr bullets and they fell quickly. I don’t want any more muzzle brakes and after several .300’s I don’t want or need hard kicking rifles to kill elk, even at long ranges. As soon as this barrel starts losing accuracy I’ll replace it with an 8 twist for the heavy bullets. I’ve had two ultra light .300 WSM’s and recoil was too much trying to push 200 gr bullets at speed. The .270 doesn’t hit with the drama of a big .300 but critters end up just as dead and it’s a pleasure to shoot. My rifle weights 7lbs bare. Lately I’ve been hunting with a 454 Casull. I get my “kicks” out of that. [/QUOTE]
