   Yeah, I will post a few loads tomorrow. I find the 270wsm a nice balance of having a lot of oomph and reasonable recoil. They are inherently accurate.

   Mararoa liked post by winchesterM69A On thread : Small rifle primers V large rifle primers.

   One thing I discovered early on in the small vs large primer debate is that small primers fall out of large primer pockets very easily.

   Mararoa liked post by woods223 On thread : Looking for a good all around rifle

   There’s plenty of good s/h rifles out there, just try and test fire before buying. S/h or new buy one in a common caliber, easier and cheaper usually to get ammo for. You don’t need top end optics,...

   Did the O P grow up with dogs? Or is this a warm and fuzzy idea? A dog is a living creature , not a furry machine , so the dog will need all your attention - more than a potential girlfriend even....

    Mararoa liked post by Steelisreal On thread : Short barrels and full powder burn?

    When it comes to standard centrefire rounds, all the powder *that is going to be burnt* is consumed within the first few inches of the barrel. No powder ever burns 100% of the kernels inside the...

    I hunted with a 270 win for around 20 years and shot 130gn to 161gn projectiles and everything in between. I ended up settling on 140gn Accubonds for the last 5 or so years I had it. 24" barrel and...
