[HPBTMTCH]

RUMLUVER, i bought the rifle as a favor, from a gun store that was going out of business. He sold it to me below cost since i was a pretty good customer. I liked the little rifle a lot. Very light weight, no recoil, and it would shoot 75 gr. bullets real fast. It shot under half inch, which is good for a skinny barrel. But to be honest, if it does`nt burn 100 grains of powder, i lose interest kinda quick, lol. It just would`nt make as much mist as the 30-378. The final nail in the coffin, however, after about 200 rounds, it just suddenly guit shooting. Groups opened up to almost 4 inches at 100. Swapped scopes, checked mounts, not it, cleaned it with butches bore shine, and then JB paste, did`nt help. I read they carbon up in the throat, so lapping it might have helped, but like i said, wanted something different anyway.

HPBTMTCH I have also don't get worked up very much either with anything of small case capacity. Right now my favorite rifle is my model700 LSS chambered in .338 RUM! It's such great fun to shoot and very accurate! Thanks for reply on the WSSM too.

I haven't seen anyone shooting a 270 in years. Range or Hunting!!! 30-06, 300 WinMag,7mm Mag (with 280 & 7mm08) and 243 seem to take up most of the benches for big game hunters with 22-250 & 223 on the varmint benches.

The .270 WCF is still alive and kickin in my neck of the plains. I'd hazard to guess that at least 1/4 of the hunters here still use them for big game. Followed by 30-06, 7mm Rem Mag, .243
