Nice.

270, would have thought being capable of longer range shots
that maybe a bit more powerful a scope ?

Of course it partly depends on what you are looking
at using it for.

Went to the range to try the new zastava 270 today was useing some Winchester 130 grain power points I was shooting. With the factory iron sights got a nice 1 inch group right at point of aim didn't. Have to make any adjustments

I have 2 friends with .270's. Both of them use 150gr. Sierra BT's at 2,850fps - for everything from deer to moose and elk. they are both excellent game shots. They love their rifles and would not consider shoot big game with a 130gr. bullet.

Did you know that the great .270 promoter Jack O'Connor, actually admitted it took him an average of 3.8 of those 130gr. Silver Tips he insisted on using, to kill a BC moose. 3.8 shots per moose - good grief!

Had he used a big game bullet instead of that baby deer bullet, I'm sure his results would have been better - unless he was a horrid shot.

Any of the Premium 130's if I had to use one so light, or one of the 150's or heavier, would be my choice if I every used a .270, that is.
