Hi Guys,

The smith that put the last bbl on my 270 shoots nothing but the 6.5-06 w/120 gr bullets of some brand. Has taken plenty of elk at many distances though not long by ya'lls stds. Last cow taken was @ 420.

He took it to africa for a plains hunt. Don't know the particulars but he was satisfied w/performance.

Looks like my next rifle w/be a 270-300RUMw/30" bbl/brake etc. Should end up weighing about 9+ lbs. 170gr bullet @ 3400. 140 gr bullet @ 3700. Will use the 375 for elk and the 270 LR for mulies way out there.....
