Default RE: 270 wsm

I like alot about it.....haven't shot one though, not sure what others think, but on paper it looks pretty sweet, shorter case, more velocity.....

though more velocity/speed IMO isn't always better, I've used my .270 on antelope for a while now and feel like the plain old .270 is overkill on those guys, pretty certain I'm going to pickup a .243 pretty soon here for antelope mainly.

But for a guy who's .270 is his 1 do it all, the .270 WSM def has some welcomed power added to it....you may consider/look at the .300wsm, supposedly this WSM case was designed to work ideally with the .308 caliber.....and a 150 or 165gr coming out of that .300wsm def has some speed and power, also 180gr are a nice option for the bigger stuff vs. the 150gr max loaded in the .270, though maybe someday theyll load 160gr in the .270wsm that would be a pretty sweet big game setup I think.
