RE: 270 Managed Recoil
I agree.... every rifle is different you can't tell how it will shoot by reccommendations from other guys. I wish it was available about 5 years ago. I had a 270 that kicked like a mule. I had others that were very tolerable. The .270 isn't considered a high recoil round.

RE: 270 Managed Recoil
my .30-30 kicks harder than my .270, though years ago as a boy, that .270 scared me. I think managed recoil was designed more so for kids hunting with dad's rifle, when that .270 .30-06 is too much for that 5' 100 lb kid.
Might be nice for coyotes as well....100gr bullets....

Mediocrity has killed a lot of deer over the years. 
I understand each rifle has a being unto itself. I was looking for personal experiences with the round.
Thanks,

RE: 270 Managed Recoil
I have down loaded a few 270's over the years. The cartridge handled the download very well. I will admit that I have not used the factory downloads, but I am sure they would do well.
If it is bullet performance you are worried about, then I would not worry. We had great bullet performance on the rounds that we down loaded. We mostly down loaded 130 grain Sierra's. Tom.
