[QUOTE="KDM, post: 77355, member: 314"] The .270 is more than capable of taking game at those distances. I've personally seen 3 deer taken at over 500 yards with 130 gn bullets. 2 with Sierra BT and 1 with Nosler BT. 2 were Boom Flop and 1 went 40 yards. Conditions for these shots were very good and the deer were broadside. One caveat though: MOST shooters are NOT capable of making these shots. These deer were taken by a VERY experienced shooter and I would not have taken these particular shots as I'm not confident I could make a quick kill. [/QUOTE]
