So shot a .270 Weatherby Magnum today. Last week at the range, ran into a dude with a Browning X-Bolt in .270WSM. Really nice rifle.
So I am a handloader. I am told the .270 Weatherby Mag is $85 per 20 round box. That is crazy.
So before I buy my next rifle. Is it worth exploring these calibers? Are these fufu boutique passing calibers?
There is the old standby of the 7mm Rem Mag. I own three .30-06 because that is what our deer party uses.
Shooting the Weatherby Ultra Light in .270 Weatherby Magnum was enjoyable. I guess I tolerate recoil just fine.
Am I crazy to want a rifle in a funny caliber? Is it time to consider a caliber that is not "throwing pumpkins"?
