[QUOTE="Stalker, post: 606781, member: 41249"] I am building a 270 win on an old rem 721 action. I've never owned a 270 so it is all new to me. Im building the rifle for an all around hunting rig and not so much a long range rifle. I plan on developing some lighter loads with 90gr bullets and dont plan on shooting anything heavier than 130gr. I d like to keep the barrel shorter as most my hunting is in brushy areas. I'm thinking barrel length between 20"-22". is this length too short for this round? Probably 95% of my shots will be inside 200yds but I'd like some accuracy out to 500yds if possible. Barrel length, ROT? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
