Worth remembering that 270 is a zillion years old and chambered in every rifle imaginable and so suffers from the same loading fatigue 6.5x55 does. They have to consider the old actions. Liability and what not. Buy a Sako 75 in .270 (due to the stock shape) and stoke up 140g to 150g Hornady projectiles and I can't see what you could find to complain about. I do think in light straight stocks it has a sharp/fast recoil that is unpleasant.
It was so cool it became lame and now I find out it is actually considered lame I might buy one.
