Has too much time on their hands
Nice Jaycee, but the 270 Winchester will never be dethroned. I could only guess the cost of ammo...

My guess is that this is geared towards the guys that would buy a .270 Weatherby, ammo cost would most likely be in the same neighborhood.
Once you have enough brass, reloading then brings down the cost of ammo.
You must admit, the ballistics are impressive, but there will always be the "nay sayers " .

I bet that sucker provides a wallop on the shoulder.
In hunting situations it won't really matter but I'd be curious on barrel life too.
The newer Nosler chamberings are some pretty smoking loads. Only problem is that you have to chase the deer beyond 300 yards away before shooting it or it will be dressed and quartered upon bullet impact.

How is it one careless cigarette can cause a forest fire, but it takes a whole box of matches to light a campfire?

Impressive yes, but at 42percent more case capacity, that's a lot of extra powder for a few 100 ft,s

"Wallop on the shoulder " I hunt with a .358 Norma Mag, cust. built on a model 70 Win . action, which I find has less recoil than a few .300 mags that I have shot, Under hunting situations recoil by most is not even recalled, Target shooting off a bench , is another issue.
Barrel Life , in hunting situations , you will not wear it out!
As for " it will be dressed and quartered upon bullet impact. " get into reloading, and when loaded with a bullet constructed for those velocities, it will hang together and not cause much meat damage.
As with any other "hot " calibers, if a properly constructed bullet meant for high velocities is used meat damage is then a none issue, hunters all over the world realize this and use bullets designed for the job.

Recoil will affect people differently, in hunting situations it's not noticed but on the bench it is. This is obviously not a round developed for a max range of 100 yards therefore bench time is important.
What would you recommend as a bullet that is easily obtainable for such loading? I'm aware of the mess my .257 Wby mag makes at 100 yards with an Accubond and the devastation at 150 yards with a Scirocco.

I am sure you get a 100 fps or more FPS gain just switching to copper bullets from a lead cup and core bullets.

Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.
