Thread: 270 shooters

Some 270's are horrible to shoot - (read Tikka with factory stock) and boot like mules.
With the right stock they are very easy to use with 130's and less. Recoil steps up with heavier bullets cranking.
Killing power is a step up compared to smaller calls and a 270 is very forgiving on a poorly placed shot.
I like harder bullets like accubonds that blow a hole right through but in factory the Winny Powerpoint 130's are hard to beat for run of the mill pigs and deer and maybe the 140gr Sako would be a good factory option for stags.
If you can have a couple of shots out of it before committing that will tell you what you want to know.
