About LinkBacksFirst rifle I every owned was a 270Win Mk1 Ruger. Kicked like a mule, louder than hell and overall was a shit of a rifle. It sucked ass.
Roll on a few decades and I've been through a few shooters. Was thinking of taking a second look at the 270.
I'm after a fast shooting (i.e. no ear muffs or shagging around with brakes), flat shooting, hard hitter to 400m. Not too long or too heavy.
Is the current offerings in 270Win (or more to the point 0.277 bullets) good enough to keep up with the modern offerings?
On my last hunt a mate shooting 260Rem was faster, lighter and as (more) accurate with enough energy to sack what needed to be put down. I was quite jealous TBF.
Theres a pretty loyal 270 following so here whats your thoughts?

How much does a 270Win suck in 2019?
The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
