Standard calibres do well with long barrels too.




Yes they do!! And even better when 'slippery' high BC projectiles are put through them, with the newer slow powders. 24" barrel on my 270Win, heavy dose of Rel22, 130grAccuBond ... I dont need a fast 26cal.

But if this Nosler cartridge is based on a shortened RUM case, I'm buying a reamer!!

When has "need" ever had much to do with getting a new gun???

I have a .270 or two as well..along with 6.5's..but the thing I have read over and over is, given the same muzzle velocity out of both calibers..at around 350 yds..because of the superior BC and SD, the 6.5 takes over and never looks back..have never tested it, only have read it..
