[QUOTE="Big Jake Duke, post: 874397, member: 29978"] Great article, i havent read all of the posts so please forgive me if this has been previously stated. I am an original Jack O'Conner fan. I bought my 270 win m70 on my 18th birthday with my own money. I have been an advocate for 30 years. Then on a fluke, while having my third barrel installed on the same rifle 2 years ago i had it rechambered for 270 Ackley Improved. Best move i could have made. I have better then the wsm performance. I can always shoot regular 270 ammo.and i put a 130gr bullet out at 3300 fps. The new Nosler 150 Long Range Accubond out at 3200 fps and the 140 somewhere in between. I do suggest a 26" barrel, and Lee Collet Dies to keep expenses down. When PO Ackley made his infamous statement that the 270 wasnt worth improving, he did not have access to today's powders and bullets. It will give you 8-10% more of everything. That means 200-300 more fps, and isnt that why we are here? [/QUOTE]
