Trouble is the lack of 1:8 twist factory rifles in .270. They suffer a fair bit with the the slow twist factory barrels. Significantly smaller rounds flog the 270 at range because of that fact unfortunately.

[@HSTvids357]

The same happens with .25-06 imo. Most all of them are 1:10 in factory guns, so nobody has historically made a heavy for caliber bullet for them.

[@jeremyst.george6711]

Militarys next get guns are to be built in 6.8mm ie 27 cal. So in a few years there's going to be a lot of 27 cal barrels with all kinds of twist rates

[@jeremyst.george6711]

+ 6.8 western is a 1:7.5 twist 27 cal barrel. So they obviously do make fast twist 27cal barrels. If you can figure out where browning is getting them made

I was fighting the same thing today in the Nevada desert, way to much wind coming thru the canyon, but was only shooting at 400 yds an a 7.62x39 AR, quit after 30 rds, just blowing way to hard, an the local weather said low to no winds, yeah right, so much for weather people. Thx for the vid.

You made me wince with every miss as they were all so close. Like I commented to you earlier, the 270 Winchester was originally my favorite caliber and I still love to hunt with it. Took my first hundred large games animals with it in a Sako using 130 gr. Nosler Partitions and never shot an animal twice. Just a perfect video for such a lousy day! Thanks, both of you!

That big Berger bullet looks like you can get the goods out of that big old .270 brass. You have big country, there, kind of like the Canadian Prairies, but looks drier. Keep well, you two, keep on having fun! P.S. would be OK to show us one of your favourite car projects, from time to time ;-)

Because of it’s use in whitetail deer hunting in the southern US, where the open distances are a bit short, the .270 probably gets overlooked as a long range target cartridge. I certainly never thought of it as such. Most people I knew growing up thought 150 yards was a long shot.

Going by numbers, if two bullets have the same BC going the same speed, will they have the same drop and same wind drift? In other words, something like a 90 grain .224 matchking and a 130 grain .264 matchking going the same speed. I know the matchking has a slight edge but let’s say they have the same bc
