    long time .270 user here......big fat heavy point n shoot bush load...150 grn partitions are simply awesome.....with a 130grn-140grn something for longer range and job is done..... take that chronygraph out and place it directly behind your target..shoot the shite out of it and forever afterwards be a happy man.
    the mighty poohseventy made its name back before rangefinders and chronic graphs made life all complicated like.....you sight her in 3" high at a hundy with your longer range/more accurate load...it will be bang on somewhere around 270 yards (handy to remember that) back bone hold at 350ish job done...mine will put ANY load you feed it into a playing card sized group at a hundy so a point n shoot load is easy . in short forget what the numbers say...if its accurate and you put projectile where it needs to be...take out the front wheels...animal going down fast.
