    A 7-08 or 6.5 is all you need at those close ranges. Sent from my CPH2145 using Tapatalk

    Greetings, Get the 7mm-08. Much less drama to load for and more than adequate for 350 metres. Any of the other cartridges of that capacity from the 6.5's up to the .308 would be just as good. GPM.

    $395, yeh, bloody dear. I would buy or swap 8x57 brass and one pass through the FLS die. Sell or swap your 270 brass.

    I’d just run 8x57, 6mm rem or .257 Rob. Brass through a FL die if I couldn’t get new brass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just looks like copper fouling on the lands of your rifling. I’ve had good results from Collings No90 for removing fouling.

    Greetings, Fear not, it is a .308. 2,500 to 2,600 fps is right in the middle of the Goldilocks zone where standard projectiles neither fail to expand or fly to pieces at their first contact with...

    Longrun liked post by Magnetite On thread : Where to trim weight (rifle)
    Considering you want to shoot animals out to 800, and there's approximately a 70% corilation between precision and the muzzle energy/rifle weight ratio. It might be counter productive.
