[QUOTE="35 Whelen, post: 1473693, member: 105990"] I have a Winchester 70 in 270wsm 24" barrel. I have not used it a lot but it's a good cartridge. I mostly use a savage 270 win. 22" barrel or a Montana rifle co. 35 whelen 24" barrel. I hardly notice the longer barrel. Recoil for me is no big deal but I know for some it is. For example my wife can tell the difference in 130gr. bullet and the 150gr. bullet in the 270 win. So if that's a big concern I'd go with the 270wsm. Yes the 300 will give more bullets and be a bit better for elk, but if you can shoot the 270wsm with less recoil better then the 300wsm you will make better shoot placement and that is more in portent then bullet size. Use the Berger 170gr. or Nosler accubond long range 150gr. and you will be fine. [/QUOTE]
