The .270 Win club, are you in?

[ninepointer]

Winchester Model 70 Ranger in .270 Win.

 

[bassman]

Nope.

I have no desire to own a .270 to hunt/shoot.

Boring.

I do have one in the safe, however...likely to become a lefty 7x57 someday soon. I will never fire it as a 270 lol.

 

[tarcher]

you sir are the president of this club.

swweeeeet

Lets see how many still think the 270 are still right at the top of the pile. I have 4 of them.

I’m not in the club, however 2 weeks ago I tried out a new model 70 sporter in 270 belonging to a friend. What a beautiful and well thought out factory rifle it is. Really nice.

 

[Kermodie]

Yup, I always have at least one 270 in the safe

 

[pete dobinson]

I have a pre 64 M70, a M70 EW, a Ruger #1 with gorgeous grain in the stock and a Kimber MA all in 270.

My one and only .270 Win,at the moment is a WBY -X Blaze Vanguard S2. And to keep it company, I picked up another of the same, but this second one is in 300 WM. I call them my flame throwers. Picked them up from a couple of gentlemen on this site.

You mean there are other calibres than .270? Mine is a Mossberg Patriot Revere w/2.5-10x40 Nikon Prostaff 5.

My favorite cartridge at this time. A Tikka action with a KS Arms 26 inch barrel with a 1:8 twist bedded to a laminate stock. Still working up a load but showing some promise with RL26 with Nosler ABLR 150 grain bullets pushed at 3176 & 3232 fps on a LabRadar.

I called this bear into 30 yards last fall and my friend shot it with his 30/06. But I managed to get a nice picture with my Model 70 270 Winchester.

I think you are infringing on some copyrights right There

Nice picture Buckmastr. Is that an Extreme Weather in a Mcmillan stock?

 

[Buckmastr]

Thanks Pete, it’s a early stainless classic, cut down, fluted and in a McMillan Hunters edge stock

 

[pete dobinson]

Thanks, that McMillan looks good.

 

[Ltbull01]

Kimber Hunter 270Win. With a handloaded 129LRX at near 3200fps, it's deadly!

 

[mikeyb]

Like a good "adult film", I'm in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out.

None at the moment. Which clearly indicates a huge gap in my gun safe. Should probably fill that.

I've been "in" again since last fall so this 2011 post is out of date, I love this thing! Shoots nicely with almost no recoil and the ergonomics are a hit for me. 270 is a gooder in this package.

 

[pgpapa]

270

seeing how I am a 270 fan lets bring this back up

[Why not?]

Another big AK-Yukon bull moose has gone down to a 130 gr Nosler Partition up here.

And, Why not, moose are not hard to kill.
