Thread: .270 is the best caliber ever made.

And it still makes sense.

Look this forum is heavily shooter orientated. But there is a big majority who dont wish to go push thier firearms and systems too the max and who do most of their hunting within 400 meters with a standard rifle and standard scope.

We have all had discussions on here about what it actually takes to shoot past that, and it takes a lot of practice and time and money. The wind factor alone.

Inside 400, and bullet speed will trump weight for advantages all most all the time. All things being equal.
