[QUOTE="DZelenka, post: 472110, member: 20543"] I would say the answer is either yes or willing to pay for custom loaded ammunition. Some factory ammunition shoots great in some rifles, but there is almost a luck factor in having the load you want shoot work well in your rifle. With handloading you can control a lot of variables. Although I have not had one in 25 years, the .270 is what I recommend for those people who want a deer rifle that do not handload and have not shot enough to deal with much recoil. In many ways it is a perfect deer sized game caliber. Personally, I shoot a .280 and a 6.5x55 when I use a rifle which suits my style of hunting pretty well. I also used a .300 Jarrett for quite a few years but really didn't need the horsepower after I quit traveling to hunt. [/QUOTE]
