The .270 Winchester (or 6.9x64mm) was developed by Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1923 and unveiled in 1925 as a chambering for their bolt-action Model 54. The cartridge is a necked down .30-03.
When loaded with a bullet that expands rapidly or fragments in tissue, this cartridge delivers devastating terminal performance.
The .270 Winchester became a very popular deer and elk cartridge due to the widespread praises of gunwriter Jack O'Connor who used the cartridge for 40 years and espoused its merits in the pages of Outdoor Life. It drives an 8.4 grams (130 gr) bullet at approximately 960 m/s (3,140 ft/s), later reduced to 930 m/s (3,060 ft/s). The cartridge demonstrated high performance at the time of its introduction and was marketed as being suitable for big game shooting in the 370 to 910 metres (400 to 1,000 yd) range. Two additional bullet weights were soon introduced: a 6.5 grams (100 gr) hollow-point bullet for varmint shooting, and a 9.7 grams (150 gr) bullet for larger deer, elk and moose in big-game hunting.
http://www.facebook.com/Highjak86 Special thanks to our buddy Luke for letting us shoot his rifle and his ammo. Like we said in the video I believe with better ammo and more time behind the gun than we had, we believe this rifle will shoot a little over MOA at 100 yards. This is really what's to be expected of a stock entry level hunting rifle such as this.

http://www.coyotehuntinghq.com - Many times I will be slowly scanning the field and out of nowhere like a ghost...there stands the coyote. This young coyote appeared out of some tall fescue grass while I was using rabbit in distress on a mouth call and e-caller. He sat looking at me for a while but I couldn't shoot because of the cattle behind him. When I took the shot, I knew it was a direct hit but to my surprise he got up and ran for about 50 yards. Notice how the cattle don't seem to mind him until he is running at them.
I use only Barnes copper bullets, 130 and 140 grains for .270 and 150 and 165 grains for .308. .270 makes flatter ballistic and more accurate but .308 is obviously more powerful in my experiences so far. So I depend on .308 for the current bear season before their hibernation.
