    yeah its better reloaded you can buy sweed and its the same price as other common cals ammo wise however to get full beans out of it you have to reload as ammo company's load down as there are still a lot of old m96 rifles around which are apparently weaker but my gunsmith said they are a lot stronger than people think.... guess they got to cover there arse though

    as far as the 270 goes if you've got one and you like it good on you however it would be the last cal I would suggest to anyone after seeing on two occasions newbees getting shipped of in an ambo from being scoped that hard they where out cold both were light weight 270's high recoil is for the experienced only

    if you don't reload and you want a rifle id go 243,7mm-08,308, or 6.5x55(if you don't mind it going abit slower) my brother shot heaps with fed blue box out of his 6.5 slow yes but still works sweet around 2600fps (rough guess) I think people get abet to caught up with speed these days

    Ah that sounds like shit coaching to me, my 308 boots harder than any 270 i've fired. This argument is just gayness revisited over and over again. We need Toby here to put the end word on it all
