    What if you're like me and put a suppressor on your factory 20" 270. Does that mean my rifle shoots faster and quieter?

    I also have a suppressed 223 and the first time I took my son to the range he asked how loud it was without the suppressor. After showing him I quickly remembered how loud unsuppressed rifles are. F@#k that for fun.

    What .270 rifle comes from the factory with a 20 inch barrel ?
    Personally I’d want and have owned a 24 inch model.......................................

    Then I saw the light
    Just kidding, but 20 inch is short for a .270

    late 80s rugers and winchester model 70s flame throwers with Norma or winchester silvertip factory ammunition...I swear the flame was at least a meter long when shooting on dusk....

    My Tikka .233 with a 15” is Loudboomenflamenwefer without a can… so it’s shot canned. My most used centre fire. 17 HMR is canned as well. After shortening and a can it’s very pointable and usable.

    94 Winchester is old school. Irons only.

    Taking the 30 06 to Kaingaroa tomorrow. I run that and my 16 inch bush 308 without a can. They carry way better and years of loud stuff means one or two shots wont affect the permanent circada's I have in my ears anyway.
