[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 273578, member: 13632"] I ended up buying a Savage 12FVSS in 270 WSM. I've worked up a couple good loads with 71 grains of Rutumbo and a 140 gr Accubond or SST going 3341fps. The barrel is a 1-11 twist and I don't think the 150 will stabalize. I ran the numbers in LoadBase and the 140 has better trajectory and more hit than the 150 due to lower velocities. I have yet to try Bergers but soon I'll pick some up. It is the sweetest shooting gun I've ever spent time with. I shoot every weekend and inside 600yrd I'm first shot hit on a 10 inch steel plate, 725 I'm only first shot on a 14 inch plate. I'm getting a new scope next month and I think that will realy help. My shooting has iprove drasticly, by hunting season I should be good. I'm really confident in the 270WSM on deer at any range but I have to shoot a few to know what how far to go on elk, it has a suprising amound of hit to it. [/QUOTE]
