291: 270 Caliber Cartridges: Your Ultimate Guide

from Big Game Hunting Podcast - Hunting Africa, North America, & More! · host John McAdams

While the United States is indeed a country where 30 caliber cartridges reign supreme, the 270 bore diameter can really give the 30 caliber a run for it's money. Indeed, the 270 could even be described as a uniquely American bore diameter. In this episode, I hit the highlights of all of the 270 caliber SAAMI certified cartridges and discuss their history, legacy, their strengths and weaknesses, and their recommended uses in detail.
