[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2992940, member: 5412"] I'm not following this. A .308 firing a 150 grain round(the sweet spot of the .308) is at 3000 fps according to the winchester factory ammo ballistics table. [URL]http://www.gunnersden.com/index.htm.308winchester-ballistics.html[/URL] Using another table, the 30-06 using its sweet spot of the 165 grain bullet, is 2800 fps. [URL]http://www.gunnersden.com/index.htm.308winchester-ballistics.html[/URL] The .270 using its sweet spot of 130 grain is 3060fps per this link. [URL]http://www.gunnersden.com/index.htm.308winchester-ballistics.html[/URL] I'm having a hard time seeing how a .270 is a barrel burner when it falls right in with the other calibers in weight and velocity. I will say that the .270 is not an inherently accurate round. Nobody shoots a .270 at matches, although I've dialed my Winchester Pre-64 super grade to shoot 1/2" groups at 100 yds with reloads. It's still not a match accuracy type of rifle. [/QUOTE]
