I dunno, not much to tell. I hear how great the .270's are all the time, I bought one about 15 years ago and was less than impressed with it's accuracy, I sold it. 2 years ago my friend bought one in a Rem LSS, same thing accuracy wasnt up to par, he sold it. I dont remember if he or I even killed a deer with them. So I cant comment on results if their were any.
But a lot of people I know shoot them, his dad has Win. and its a tack driver, he took an 8 pointer last year at 60 yds, no pass through .
Then 2 different guys this year. Even the .270wsm couldnt go through the body of a deer at a meer 60 yds.Did see a .270 Win go through the neck of a axis deer, this past weekend.
Like I said theres not much to tell, I just see the .270 failing to pass through our little Texas deer to often. I dont see why one would need premium bonded bullets for our little whitetail. I have no expierence with elk, but the performance I have been seing with the .270 on deer leads me to believe it would be worse on elk.
Maybe that little extra speed the .270 has is just blowing up bullets at closer ranges, we will have to try a good bonded bullet and see what happens. But seems ridiculous to have to use such a bullet for deer.
