Savage 11FXP3 270 WSM
I had been a member here a couple of yrs. back. Been spending too much time on golf and not hunting. Anyhow always been a Browning fan but since I spend time in two sports I was wanting to go a little more on the economy side, I did not say cheap side because what I have read is the my new purchase should be a very good one. What interest's me the most is the newer cal. of the 270 WSM. I have used 7mm mag., 280 rem and liked them both but wanted something totally new. Any comments on this package gun. Also good to be back.

Owned a ton of rifles in .270Win buy have not actually owned a .270WSM. That said, I have seen that caliber perform at the range and I have a report from my gun smith who owns one. By all that I have heard, the .270WSM outshines the parent .270Win. Good luck with your new rifle.

I have a .270wsm in a browning a-bolt . It seems to shoot well I dont think that its any or much better then the .270 win. Its very hard to improve a round as good as that. It is fun to show your friends that havent seen it yet. they usally have a raving response ,like what round is that or I bet that kicks like a mule and on and on . It is a good round and is very popular around here ,I bought mine then 3 nephews and one brother bought one all brownings good luck
