270 wsm is VERY difficult to find ammo and brass for. Or so I’m told. The whole patent lawsuit thing really messed up the marketability of the wsm set imho.
I personally have never hunted with it, BUT, a friend of mine has set up 5 of the Ruger American predators in 6.5 creedmoor for various of his family members. They shoot half moa or better running a 143 ELD-X. Plenty of DRT one shot stops. I would not at all be afraid to run one for whitetails. Even the big “bread basket” Midwest/Plains whitetails I’m pursuing.
