I like my .270 but have not shortened it for the reasons you mentioned. My go to Sika rifle for hunting in the thick stuff is a Blaser R93 7mm08 with the barrel shortened to 17" and a Hardy compact suppressor. Factory Hornady Superperformance 139gn SST's exit the barrel at 2700 fps and can put three in less than 1/2 MOA on a good day. Scope is a Swarovski Z6 1.7-10x with TDS reticle is sighted in at 100 with hold over marks fortuitously on for 200 and 300. Good luck with the project![]()
