[QUOTE="Hooker, post: 1032985, member: 5819"] It's not that the .270 couldn't be a viable competitor. Two things that kept it out of competition at Camp Perry. 1. It never was a military round. That in it self wont disqualify it but, military status would have put it in the mix. 2. Bullet weight, The heavy in this caliber is the 150 gr .277 cal bullet and is a poor choice for 1000 yd competition. A 165 -170 gr pill would give a much better BC and make a better 1000 yd competitor. All things being equal the .270 is as good as the 30/06 I like them both. Back on topic I like to use what ever rifle and load I use for deer on the song dogs. Right now that is a Remington 700 sps Tac in .308 with a 165 gr Nosler ballistic tip boat tail over a healthy load of Varget. Pat [/QUOTE]
