[QUOTE="4bycamper, post: 311668, member: 17128"] Liking your 270 WSM idea. I think a 270WSM with a 26" or better light varmint barrel will be all the long range deer rifle you'll ever need. Sure works for me. Where I hunt the deer aren't all that far away, 400 yards tops. If you handload, Norma brass is pretty good. Out of my first 100, 46 went into the 'light' pile (these were within 0.6 grain) and 48 into the 'heavy' pile (also within 0.6 grain). 6 were too heavy or light for my use. I also weigh bullets into 0.3 grain lots. With this kind of effort I can usually get 0.5" groups. Thanks for your service over there and stay safe. Good luck building your rifle collection.
