270 win VS. 270 WSM
Allrighty then, I havent posted in a while and since such time have taken an antelope and 2 whitetail. My problem is that the 243 of mine ( an NEF ) sometimes wont eject shells making it unusable as a hunting rifle. I have used my 30-06 for all the hunting this year, but the lousy thing just rips a three inch hole through the animals destroying too much meat. I want a 270, but cant quite decide which flavor to get it in. It seems the WSM has the edge with over all performance, but reloading seems like it could be difficult since the shoulder angle is so extreme. As well, I think WSM loads are compressed. Please, brandish unabashed opinion on the matter. I dont need another rifle, I just want one. EJ
