I am looking into getting a new caliber rifle soon. I want something new and unique that does everything i need it to do. Normally that would be whitetail, but ill be hog hunting soon and my father and i have been planning a black bear and/or elk hunt for years. When he hits retirement in the next year or so, we are going to take some big trips!
So, I've been researching the 270 WSM. From everything I read they're a bit faster than a standard 270 win. and there is just something cool about those odd WSM rounds! (A good friend hunts with a 300 WSM and loves it, which is what turned me on to the WSM.)
Like I said, I like something unique but versatile. I hunt whitetail with a 30-06 and I know it can do elk/moose/bear, but let's look into adding a new cartridge to the safe!
What are your thoughts on the 270 WSM in general? I'll be reloading my own rounds eventually so ammo scarcity isn't a HUGE problem for me. It needs to be able to do big North American game, which I am sure it will. How's the recoil vs. A standard 270?
