[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 565547, member: 30902"] The .270 probably does just fine for him at the ranges he's capable of hitting.... . For a lot of us HERE an 800yd shot just starts us thinking about "Long Range". For the average hunter though .300yds is beyond the limit they will take a shot. Hell most guys never kill anything much beyond 100yds. Three of the nicest bucks I ever took were between four and six hundred when I'd guided a hunter within range so they could shoot it but were afraid to. In each case I even handed them my rifle and told them exactly where to hold for the kill shot. In each of those cases I ended up taking the rifle back and showing them exactly what I'd been telling them. [/QUOTE]
