    I had that problem too. Caused all manner of consternation at the range with the RO. Ended up giving about 100 rounds of them to him as I was lucky to get 1 in 5 make a bigger noise.

    Have avoided .270 ever since I fired my first centrefire, it being a .270 and me being 12years old, broken collarbone put me off for life. Think I'll stick with the 7mm Rem Mag and the .223..........good luck with your purchase tho.

    A 7RM still packs a booting though!

    nothing wrong with a 270 its just that it is one of those booring cartridges that just work, i meen who wants a gun that just works?

    If you use something other than A-maxs, ie a bullet that is actually designed for hunting with controlled expansion, then the fast little calibres (.270 and .243) kill far more efficiently and don't damage nearly as much meat...
