[QUOTE="Sully2, post: 563955, member: 31820"] [B]NO![/B]...The biggest thing wrong with the .270 is BULLETS. They dont have a proper BC for them to be an effective "deer killer" at 1000 yards. Second draw back is the powder capacity. ( same as 280 and same as 25-06...etc...etc.) To KILL a large deer at that range ..thats KILL...not WOUND...you need something with more heft to it...probably ( off the top of my head) maybe a 7mm "something or other" that you load using a scoop shovel and setup with the proper long range bullets. But regardless of what you end up with....Id look elsewhere instead of contemplating a 1000 yard .270 deer slayer BTW..a 27-28" barrel in the mtns or on the plains for HUNTING is ludicrous! [/QUOTE]
