we've gone over this time and time again. the day i can get any rifle chambered in the WSM as i can the old .270 is the day i seriously look for a WSM. same goes with bullet selection. i'm sure if i handloaded i could get that old .270 round to do anything the short mag can do but i don't. big selection of loadings from the factory is important to me.

i've also stated that in the field, any advantage the WSM has over the .270win is purely academic. sure, you can get all excitied over what it says in print but when bullet hits flesh, you wouldn't have known the difference and niether would the deer. doubt he would care either.

enjoy your short mag and i'll enjoy my OLD .270
