Re: Which short-action cartridge best equates to the .270 Win?
The 284 winchester in a BLR , the 284 can be handloaded to just about 7 mag velocity , only trouble is finding a blr in 284 without taking out a 2nd mortgage

Re: How about the "most under-appreciated" cartridge!
make mine the 284 winchester, the original short fat cartridge, perfect for most of the big game in north america, lends its case to make some wonderful long range wonders {22-284, 6mm-284 } and its a short action too boot!! Too bad the only guys who ever had anything good too say about it, didnt wr...

Re: OT - Favorite Slug Loads
hobie, if your looking for a .72 caliber rifle, try some hornady SST slugs, they are about 2000 fps, and 200 yard shots are not much of a challenge, these shoot great in some of my slug guns, and "pattern " in others, shotguns are finicky, what 1 gun shoots good wont shoot out of another e...
