Short Magnums

I have an X-bolt in 270 WSM. First load i tried was 140 grain Accubonds with Ramshot magnum powder. 5\8" 5 shot groups at 100 yards. Hard for me to want to take my other rifles hunting these days.
 
Browning Stainless Stalker .270 WSM. She's one hot shooting rifle. Light as a feather and kicks a bit like a mule haha! I call her the Quick Silver Method.
 
Here is a 300 WSM at 300 yds out of a pistol.

270 wsm model 70, schillen barrel. Original win barrel was trash, 4 1+" stretches with no rifling. Winchester wouldn't hear a word about it. The schillen was a quick fix, not amazing but sufficient and shoots sub moa consistently. I like the caliber, have killed 2 bull elk at 400 and 500 yds and several cows around 300 with 140 & 150 gr pills. I am excited to see the new nosler accubond 150 gr long range bullet. Hope a 1:10 will stabilize it. .625 BC would be pretty sweet.

Recently shot a small hog with my .300WSM, a 165 gr AccuBond at 3140 fps. Hit the forehead, blew out a large chunk of the skull and right shoulder. Thought the slug flew off somewhere. When skinned, found a slug under the belly skin. Hard to figure how it got there, no nearby hunters using a .30 cal boattail.

Sent it to Nosler, they said it was an AccuBond and that it showed evidence of tumbling. Still, a wild ride to go that far off course. Don

That is fantastic accuracy out of a bolt pistol. Don
 
T3lite in 270 WSM. 1/2 MOA all day long with 130 grain BST as long as I keep it cool. Love carrying it. Had it about 4 years and have never needed a second shot on white tails or mulies. Will be hunting elk with it this fall.
 
7 mmSAUM. So far have shot several African plains game, plus two Elk. Easy to load for. Gun is a model 7 from the Remington custom shot. Most accurate load is with 150 gr Nosler BT
 
Ruger M77 in 300 RSAUM. It does the job. I have only used it on whitetails though. 165 Gamekings out to 200 yards deer are DRT.

I would like to get my hands on a 7 RSAUM.
 
My Ruger M77 7mm SAUM does pretty good. Doesn't give me the accuracy that I would like. Need to play with it a bit, try to tweak it. I think that it should do better.
