Time for a new barrel for my 270 wsm. I was wondering the thoughts out there if I should go 7mm wsm or stay with the 270 wsm. This gun will be used for 300 plus yard shots for mulies, antelope, and hopefully sheep one day. I have a 308 and a 325 wsm I will use for elk. Out in Montana, I may stretch out the range to 500 if I practice at the range.

My gunsmith thought I might should go back to the 270 wsm with a faster twist and I was amazed that Savage put the slow 1:11 in the factory barrel. The ballistics of a 7mm do look interesting.

Thanks.
