[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 473169, member: 412"] What are you shooting now? I put SIGNIFICANT value on a low-recoil and inexpensive to shoot rifle that closely mirrors your “long-range” package. Heee’s what I mean. I have a .223 shooting 62gn ELD-Vt’s w/.395 BC @ 3K FPS. My M70 FWT’s Shoot 140gn TSX’s W/BC of .404 @ 3030 FPS. Their trajectories are so doggone close that I can learn a TON about what the wind is going to do. I can especially learn how far is “too far” in a given wind speed. I can shoot the 223 for ~1/3 or less what the 270’s cost. Just something to consider if “long range” is what you’re really working towards. The more you can shoot, especially without having to worry about recoil and getting more shots/$$.”, the faster you’ll learn and the better your form will ultimately be. [/QUOTE]
