Three for three with the 270wsm last night @ 250yds. One lung shot ran 80 yards - very good blood trail. The other 2 dead on the spot. LRX= big holes. The old .270 would have done exactly the same.

It seems to me that modern powders like R26 and higher BC bullets like the 150 LRAB, 129 LRX and 145 ELDx and have given the .270 new legs. I would go for it.
I will reply on the premise that James is serious.
Firstly, I meat hunted with a guy who used a .270 Ruger wood ultralight. 20" pencil barrel. It shot really well and I don't recall it ever...
