You can keep mis-speaking and misrepresenting the truth here, but I'm going to keep calling you on it.
Without question, you cherry picked a SUPERPERFORMANCE ROUND and compared it to STANDARD LOADS. My last post compared the same bullet in the same product line, and you back-pedal...

Both bullets are mainstream and the most popular for CXP2 game. I probably should have said the 270 has more in common with the 300wn with CXP2 size game bullets.
The 300wm is certainly more powerful with the 180grain bullet.
To avoid some unwitting newbie from believing this line of bull, I present, yet again, another comparison of the same product line between the .300WM and the .270win, but this time with your own stipulation (CXP2 bullets in 130grn 270 and 150grn 300WM).
Again, using YOUR OWN stipulations, comparing HORNADY BALLISTICS CATALOG INFORMATION for 130GRN 270WIN VS 150GRN 300WM, but this time denying you the pleasure of cherry picking loads...

Yes, trajectory is pretty similar, no, the ENERGY, is NOT the same. Again, it's simple physics. Two bullets with similar profiles and similar velocities, but one heavier than the other, will give similar trajectories, but the heavier one will have more energy. The .300win mag has 25-30% more energy than the .270win. End of story.

Next you'll tell me that a F-150 can pull as much as a semi-tractor too I suppose, simply because they're both driving 70mph?
