[QUOTE="ular270, post: 1083543, member: 90466"] Thanks ntg, that's right, a .270 is a great old classic. Ill be the first to say that there are newer rounds that are better than the .270 especially for long range work, but we need to remember that when the .270 first came out, it was considered a long range round. But we've come a long way with Technology and the .270 has been a bit overlooked with respect to bullets and barrel rifling twists. I think some people think the .270 is somehow inherently unfit for long range work. But if you give me a high BC Bullet of at least 160 grains and some barrels with tighter twist than the old 1:10 like maybe a 1:85 or mabe 1:8 I think it would be more than capable of competing with the relative 6.5s and 7s. It's right in the middle. All that's needed is for the bullet and barrel makers to open the gates. [/QUOTE]
