If you do select the 270wsm use the 130grain SST. MV 3200fps Ballistic Coefficient .460 Sectional Density .242 It will have more velocity, shoot flatter, and easily kill any deer or elk. People often choose bullets based upon the belief they need a heavy projectile for "knock down power"when in fact the quarry dies from hydrostatic shock and trauma. The 130 grain class of bullets in .270 cal are really blessed by velocity and enough fragmenting mass.

Should have gotten him a Kegerator!

I do not want surgery again, but I do want things fixed so I can live like abnormal people.

Just make sure you are not being Neutered!

I just don't want jumpers to not be able to afford hunting because it got too expensive. When that occurs you might as well go buy a deer.

The recoil is so light that it feels like a BB gun and shoots 10 shot groups the size of a dime.

The pic I just sent you is something that was assembled for just under $750 but is worth well over $2000. You don't need to spend a lot to get something of great value and reliability/longevity It has a chrome lined match grade bbl that will last 15k-20k rounds A rifle identical to this one just dropped a Bull Moose in Alaska. The bullet was a 129grain Hornady SST. The ballistics on that are equal to 6.5mm swedish We all know what that cartridge can do. There are many things to consider, ease of use, bbl life, availability of ammo, versatility, choices of components, ballistics, not just FPS or bullet weight. We need to consider sectional density, Ballistic Coefficient, and terminal effects. That .270wsm is a great cartridge hampered by a limited choice in bbls and other items.

The POI is at 2.6" @100yds when zeroed at 100yds. POA-POI So what is going on is that you want the bullet to strike high by 2.6"when you zero your crosshairs at 100yds. That way when the bullet flies along it's ballistic arc it crosses the horizontal plane again at 245yds. That is what is called point blank aim, meaning that you need not adjust your elevation knobs or holdover in order to hit the kill zone. I really wish you would just buy the 260 a 270wsm is a barrel burner. That means that the throat of the bbl will get eaten up at a faster pace. do not discount that .260 bullet. I like the .270win I like the .270wsm, but I do not like having to buy a bbl that often. Ammo for it is expensive as all hell, brass is scarce. a 24"bbl is not all that good in hunting unless you are only going to post up/hunt from a blind or stand. The length does not add accuracy, after 18" everything else is just for a few fps. A versatile hunting rifle will balance well, have a short enough bbl to be able to point quickly whether on an open field or in thick brush. I will pm you a few pics of rigs that suit this need. one has a bbl as short as 14.5" but will hit well past 600yds and as far as 800yds without enormous holdovers

No just typos! I mean that they may not lead in fatalities, just group stompings. Hippos are dangerous as all hell, I know someone who had a zodiac get punctured and they had to swim for it.

Editing can work wonders...

No problems, I just didn't want people to make a fatal mistake. With the Caped Buffalo is you can see them, you are in danger. They are the most dangerous animal in Africa, Hippos and Crocodiles are just slightly behind. With the hippo and the crocodile you need to be pretty close and or near water to get attacked. Yes I know Crocs get all the press but you usually will not get a group of over 100 after you.

Christmas Mortars! maybe some 130mm ones in red, green, white and blue?

Water buffalo are fairly placid animals, Caped Buffalo are another thing entirely.

Hopefully it will serve as faithfully and for at least as long as it's stable mate the 747

People that vote yes are not very trustworthy are they?

If he had been innocent then what would you think of your invasion?

They would have you smoking the bone of other men

Oh hell no. Look through her drawers? You mean like the panties she has on? Sure why not!

No reason to get sick, filters for water are not that expensive and 2 drops of bleach per gallon of water does wonders.

There are a few meds that can come up as THC as well.

No they just don't swallow,

Gas Chromatography is a bitch. So is voice stress analysis, no more beating the box. The other day I was at the VA and played the game, I walked in from the parking lot to the clinic 0.5 miles. I sat down and calmed myself and started bearing down. I got my pulse rate down to 44bpm. The nurse was startled, the Doc was not... He said "some people have it and some people don't" If I was still in shape I could have dopne something with my BP but it was up at 129/92 because of the walk and me hurting. Usually it is 120/72-74

Breathe Deep! Slow in through your nose, out through your mouth. There are many people who will not or can not breathe deeply enough to scrub the O2 from the air, deep breathing exercises help and also allow for your lungs to pick up all available O2 Use your diaphram, not your upper chest. There are a few people here more current than I am in high altitude training, but these principles will remain. Also make sure your gloves have removable liners that can be dried and carry an extra set. Extra socks and boots that have been worn continuously for a few months. Lots of water needed, you will dry out very quickly. I suggest pilot flares and cayume sticks. Also a SAT phone, a personal locater beacon is nice as well, you may not be the one in peril and needs assistance NOW.

I hear the locals will be very fond of you and your belongings.
