    I do find it interesting how quick people are to bag out a creedmoor but will stand by a .270 as being a great "stop anything in its tracks" cartridge. Not having a go at the old .270 by any means...

    Agreed, even though i have successfully shot deer at over 500m with my creedmoor, i certainly wouldnt recommend it, just because it can doesnt mean its a good idea or the right tool for the job. ...

    I see things from both sides of the above debate because i have seen both sides of it play out first hand. I have watched mates try shoot deer at distance with calibres smaller than ideal for the job...

    Those charts are what the name implys, "equivalent" not "same". Varget/2208 and IMR4064 are very close though.

    52.5gr should be a pretty safe starting point

    Yeah your not wrong, Optical chronos can be a pain in the ass. Calculating velocity from shot drops can work but its not a very accurate way of doing things imo. Alot of variables & not only...

    A loss of 200fps going from 24" to 20" doesnt add up with the .308, you should theoretically have lost around 100-120fps at most. My suggestion would be that theres an error somewhere with either...

    1:9 will probably stabilise a 73gr ELDM or 77gr TMK just fine too. 2206h works really well and shouldnt be too hard to find. CFE223 & RL15 are also good options & both in stock at reloaders in...
