[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1531481"] It is tough, with so many variables top make true apples to apples comparisons. My point, between bullets only .007" diameter apart, and it's understood by those that know and shoot both caliber bullets, is that you can make apples to apples comparisons both between 7mms and 270s and within each caliber, e.g. my opinion is that the 7mm-08 hand down beats a 7x57, only due to it's higher pressure limit, which is more of a case of a newer round vs an old one. As to the 284 vs 270WSM, I'm not trying to be snarky when I write, one data point does not statistical significance make, in any caliber comparison. IMO, that 200-300fps muzzle velocity nod to the 270WSM is significant. As to matches, we see on this post that many shooters like many calibers and many of those are well known, or well hyped and the WSM line is known but is not a major player in any popularity contest. In any case, let's keep shooting flat and straight. [/QUOTE]
