Correct at 650 yards I would still be seeing speeds of 2087fps and experience in my 270win tells me that is more than enough to stop a good sized red in its tracks, like shooting at any range shot...

EDepends entirely on what bullet you're using. 1800fps won't work for a monolithic, a fully bonded bullet with no cavity and a thick jacket, or some of the mechanically locked bullet designs. You...

Impact velocity is more important or nothing would ever die humanly from a 223.

I haven't shot any animals with mine yet but I expect it to perform on reds out to 600-650 yards if conditions are right, My standard 270win was still very effective at dropping deer on the spot...

Yup one of the reasons I went from win to wsm my win load was doing 2950fps no pressure and probably could've stoked it up hotter but the wsm should be comfortable good for 3200fps with the same 145g...

My first WSM was a 270. My main load was a Nosler 140gr BT doing a mild 3100fps which was superbly accurate. I really wanted to use the 150gr BT but at the time there were none around so tried 150gr...

Everything I have pointed my 270wsm at has died on the spot from 0-600+yds, I have used a few different loads, starting with the 150LRAB doing 3280fps, the 150gr Berger VLD hunting using the exact...

Read this and got inspired to order a box of fusion 150's. Usually use 150 sst"s

I have had limited experience with the 270 WSM, mine was only used in Canada at my son's place. The load we used was the Barnes XLC 130 gr at over 3200 fps. I shot two Mule Deer Bucks with that load,...

Just buy a 270wsm, yanks love them, but then guys over here think that they just drill holes in things.... 10yds, shot in the chest, through all the vitals then through the ribs and found under the...
