[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1421234, member: 97196"] Seems I build a new rifle every year or two in a different caliber thinking this one will be the ticket for the next hunting season and when it comes time to load up, I throw the 270 WSM in my pickup and head out. Shot 140gr Accubonds for years but when the 170gr EOLs came out I rebarreled it to 1:8 twist and can’t be happier with the results. It has been so reliable in delivering one-shot kills on deer/elk from 100 to 1000 yards that I can’t leave it home. My kids use the newer rifles with equally good results but the 270 WSM has been my go-to. Had to use the 300 WM last season since the scope gave up on the WSM at the last minute and it did great. May take a 6.5 this year? [/QUOTE]
