ALHunter270

Generally speaking the heavier the rifle the less the recoil will be so the easiest way to reduce recoil is to buy a heavier rifle or add weight to it but this is not ideal for a hunting rifle.

Another option as suggested previously would be to buy a 7mm-08 which has less recoil than a 270 & almost equals its performance.

Good luck

I am not sure what your really gaining in the 270WSM? If you want smaller, lighter and short throw...then fine. I don' t really believe the published data put out on the WSM or the likes and even if possible, not with factory ammo and real hunting conditions. So I would lean right now toward the standards, for the same reason as bear72 brought up, ammo selection and price.

The 300WSM I would consider, but not the 270 or 7..at this point.
