[QUOTE="Quintus, post: 1735828, member: 67552"] It is pretty cool and may not fit the full-on publics niche, but it is cool Weatherby expanded it's own niche. The 270 does not match the 6.5, but the 270Wby with an ABLR will stretch pretty far. The .257Wby may not be the cats *** at 800 yards, but it is unequaled to 500 as a pure medium game hunting cartridge. The 300 grainers in the 33 Nosler, 338 Ultra, or the 338-378Wby are the true performers, but the cost. And really, how much energy is required and is that per Field and Stream or Sports Afield? The RPM will be here to stay, hell you can still buy 240Wby ammo and brass and wide variety of rifles still with a 10 twist. I like it. Some take cream others sugar and some like one lump while still others prefer 2. Variety is the spice of life and while I may have been faithful to one woman for over 20 years...I shoot 10 different rifles a week!:) [/QUOTE]
