[QUOTE="budlight, post: 1907438, member: 2939"] I'm a 270 person. My buddy is a 270 wsm person. We both have rifles with 26 inch barrels. We have both got Buffalo with them. The kick is okay.... not abusive. The stock has a lot to do with precieved recoil. Things like a target type stock have no drop in the comb, they come straight back. So you don't have the barrel rise when you touch the trigger. There are weighted recoil dampening stocks. I have some big magnums so when I was young I bought a shooting padded coat with the enhanced right shoulder area built in. We don't have brakes on our 270's a brake if it cut down the recoil by 40+% would make them an all day target gun. The old saying is: That if you can't do it with a 270 you probably aren't going to do it. I'm also a 7STW person. They make the 7mag and smaller cases obsolete. Out chrono testing. My buddy was popping primers in an attemp to match the velocities of the 7 STW. So I could down load or just buy factory ammo and attain the same FPS as someone stressing the 7 mag. I do have a brake because I used it for 600 and 1000 yard shoots. I have loaned that rifle for lots of out of state elk hunts using 175 -195 grain bullets. The same can be said for the 300 win mag. I bought a 30-378. They are not in the same class especially when you get into 30 inch barrels and 240 grain bullets. The era of the ultra mags On the flip side my daughter weighs 105 pounds and doesn't like the 270 for deer hunting. So I had E.R. Shaw build a 26 inch fluted 257 AI Every mule deer she has taken were one shot DRT using 100 grain spbt. accurate and fun to shoot. uses speer 87 grain for varmints.
