    Works been flat stick recently and coming into race season for us the next few months for me means pretty much 7 day weeks. It sucks on the limited hunting time but I do enjoy it so can't complain...

    No they can fuck off. Paid canned hunts and trophy hunts are “ethically challenged” and create extremely bad press for all hunters. Secondly as Smiddy says, non deserving shits and giggles cowboys...

    I would (and do) use the 150s, any 10 twist barrel will stabilise them just fine, 140s are a funny thing in the 270, they dont have the speed of a 130 and dont have the thump of a 150, some might say...
