[QUOTE="NYLES, post: 137275, member: 7039"] Kirby....is fiftydriver his email is under his user name... for Shawn look up defensive Edge...I think his email is also under his user name. 270AM over 300WM? I have a 300WM in a Sendero...Find the post 270AM group....under equipment reviews....270AM is a 300 or 7mmRUM necked down to 270...Ive never seen one or shot one but read enough in here and all I can say its a...bad dude! and of all the Allen Mags easiet to fireform and load for. Figure a 169.5 gr ULD RBBT at 3400 fps with a BC way up there closest I can get out of these guys is .740...turns into one flat shootin gun. Almost bought one for Tim/TX in here using a nightforce R2 recticle with a 150 yrd zero reaching to 1400 yds w/o touching the knobs. And all Ill ever hunt with it is MS beanfields on whitetails. Another reason is Kirby says he doesnt like to use a SS action on his big magnums(big as in 338 Lapua based). I was going to use a SS so the 270AM was the best choice. The 300AM is still in development, but the 270 has already proven itself. The lawton action route saved my 7mag LSS($1200 gun I get to hang onto) and also once the 300AM is ready to go, my custom 270AM on the lawton 7500 action would only need a rebarrel and bolt work and its ready to go as a 300AM. You end up better off with a custom action you get to keep your old trusty on stand by... pass it down to your son .....whatever you get to keep it. Last but not least the 270AM will blow a 300WM out the door! The 270 is just flat out in another class! On lawton actions if you dont have to have the repeater go with the 7500 over the 7000 $30 for a much better action. Ok! If I messed any of this up you all please correct me! [/QUOTE]
