    Puku, I have a 270WSM also. about 800-900 rounds through it now(mainly 140SST and 150VLDs).There is a stock pile of ABLR in my shed, but these are not for sale.

    Once my barrel is done, I'm not sure what to go to. The 270WSM is so versatile, unless you go for a 1000-1200m caliber I'm not sure what to go to. Short actions are nice, and think a 260AI or even a 280AI at a stretch. a 140gr 6.5WSM would give you something similar to the 150gr in the 270WSM.

    If you could have two rifles, a 6.5 or 270WSM and ture long range thing.
