That sums up the 270 rather nicely
And it makes such a lovely big bang

I’ve got a standard stainless t3x .270 with a 22” barrel, bedded into a pse hunter stock with side mounted sling swivels. Running sako blade ammunition.
really nice to carry, well balanced, reliable.
Availability of ammunition has never been a problem

Why not just get a Tikka CTR or UPR in 6.5 PRC, and spend the money you save of something else?

I don't get why some people say the .270 doesn't have good bullet selection!

In my cabinet I have boxes of 110gr, 130gr, 140gr, 150gr, 156gr ammo, all factory.

Additionally, you can get 120gr factory ammo and 145gr factory ammo, and if you reload then 90gr and 170gr bullets become an option too.

Some folks seem to keen to knock what they dont use in this game ! Admittedly getting 90 grain factory might need to be a special order in factory loaded. 270 will be in the top ten deer rifles for another few decades to come.
