Let me see if I have this right...

7x57 (good)
.284, 140 gr at approx 2800

.270 (bad)
.277, 130 gr at approx 2850

Seems logical to me........

Hornady factory load is a 130 grain at 3200 for the 270 win.

I never said it was bad, just not practically better than anything else.

So basically, you're telling me I can have a larger, heavier bullet and only give up 50 fps? Sold.

I like my 270s.

Yeah am slightly hesitant ...but must admit to owning one I bought 2nd hand years ago....Remington 700 with synthetic stock and in stainless with iron sights....could never get the scope zeroed. Went through 3 plus boxes of ammo over a period of time...eventually decided to take scope off and try with irons to see if it was the barrel...when removing the screws going into the receiver I found one was broken off inside the receiver. Tried the irons and bang on ...so if weather is inclement I take it out ...shot couple of puku with it and worked fine...now I will duck down deep in the trench
