    love for the .270 wsm

    I just wanted to see if there was any other .270 wsm fans? The caliber has been good to me for deer, bear and sheep. I did shoot a bull elk with it this year, but will probably go back to my .338 for elk. For me atleast, 4x12 scope and 140 gr accubonds, seems to be a good combo in the...
