Both my 85's struggle with lows. As an estimate, I'd say the 270win would eject 70% of the time at best, the 270wsm was worse at only 30% of the time. Even with meds the wsm still fails occasionally. Like a few guys have said you have to be energetic with the bolt for best results. I don't think a $3500 new rifle should perform like that, but I still have two, but I bought them 2nd hand
