270 and Long Distance

[Panozguy]

You guys are getting over my head quickly, so I'll just keep it simple. Of all the people I know who shoot at distance, not one of them shoots a .270 at the range - and we're talking a lot of people here. .308? Sure, plenty of 'em. 7mm, 6mm, 6.5mm variants? Sure, plenty of them. Even .223. But not ONE single .270.

Buy what you want, but there must be some reason for this...best of luck, OP.

Edit - I mean long distance target practice, not hunting. Punching paper or steel, which I believe was the original purpose of this thread.
