Oh my surely not

lol The more I read about the 270 the more I want a 7MM Magnum. Guess I'm like Elmer Keith and prefer to hunt my game before I shoot them.

As opposed to having to hunt your game AFTER shooting them?

Ron makes his living off that cartridge

I sold my 270 to buy a 6.5 Creed, then I was told the 6.5 PRC was what the Creed should have been...sold the Creed. Now the 270 does what the other 2 do just as well with better availability. I'm so confused. Should I try and trade the PRC and get my 270 back? I wish I had never got that free subscription to ODL for Christmas last year.

I always said 270wsm was a better gun, my mom loved her creedmoor until bull this year took 5 shots before they had to pull win mag out to kill it lol

One of the biggest tools on the planet that figured out how to use the internet. I am not a fan of censoring but that guy needs a permanent duct tape muffle to shut his pie hole.

The more I read these types of articles and comparisons, the more I want a 270.

Now you're talking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The more articles I see like this the more I realize that Fudds are gonna Fudd.

This thread will likely break page records, but this here is the only correct take.

I should probably lead off with this disclaimer: I thoroughly enjoy Ron's articles and find that he does an admirable job presenting clear facts and concise and honest writing. He tells you what he thinks, but he always allows you to have your own. I guess you could call me a Ron "supporter".

With that disclaimer out of the way, I think those criticizing Ron's article are kinda silly...and might be Creedmoor supporters? He lists a bunch of facts, says that the Creedmoor doesn't have too many objective advantages to it when compared to similar cartridges (but he also notes that it does have some advantages), and then says, "But you know what, it's great that we have so many options, and y'all should shoot what you like!", and then y'all crucify him and call him a Fudd. Sounds like a bunch of hurt feelings to me.

I go back and forth between old and boring and new and fancy. It mostly depends on who I'm reading. If someone says the 6.5 is the be all end all, I spend the next month with the 30-06. If someone says the 6.5 is a worthless fad, I spend time with the 6.5s.

I just like to be contrary . So it'll be a lot of 30-06 this week.

I think I will just stick with my 1743 model musket with 30 pound magazine clips. Just put plenty of salt peter in the black powder and the smoke won't smell too bad.

I rate Spomer right up there with Boddington these days. The drivel they produce is so tired. If you can get close enough or run fast enough a 22 Hornet is all you need. If you're in the other spectrum a .50 BMG is all you need. Lol.
