Products overview on 270 wsm ammo:

The 270 wsm ammo is a rifle cartridge developed by Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1923 and unveiled in 1925 as a chambering for their bolt-action Model 54^[3] to become arguably the flattest shooting cartridge of its day, only competing with the .300 Holland & Holland Magnum, also introduced in the same year.

Brief History about 270 wsm ammo for sale

The.270 wsm ammo was introduced in 1925 along with the Winchester Model 54 bolt action rifle under the name “270 WCF” (270 Winchester Centerfire), but it did not immediately become popular because of the.30-06 Springfield, which had only recently been introduced and was chambered for the M1903 Springfield bolt action rifle, which was frequently “sporterized” for hunting.

However, over the following decades, particularly in the post-World War II era, the .270 wsm ammo for sale gained significant popularity among hunters and sporting rifle enthusiasts, placing it among the most widely used and popular big game hunting cartridges globally, especially given the widespread use of rifle scopes. Shooters were aware that the.277 “was capable of shooting more flatly than the well-known 30-06.

Due in large part to the glowing reviews of gun writer Jack O’Connor, who used the cartridge for 40 years and extolled its virtues in the pages of Outdoor Life[6][7], as well as other illustrious gun writers of the era like the late Col. Townsend Whelen, the.270 Winchester, which was designed exclusively as a big game hunting cartridge, became very popular.

The 270 wsm ammo for sale was touted as being ideal for big game shooting in the 270 to 460 meter (300 to 500 yd) range and was initially commercially loaded to drive a 130 grain (8.4 gram) bullet at around 960 m/s (3,140 ft/s). Later, this was decreased to 930 m/s (3,060 ft/s). A 100 grain (6.5 gram) hollow-point bullet for varmint hunting and a 150 grain (9.7 gram) bullet with a larger sectional density were shortly introduced. These bullets were appropriate for improved penetration of huge deer, such as wapiti and moose. [3] However, the 130 grain bullet continues to be the most widely used choice.

The.270 Weatherby Magnum was the only other commercial 6.8mm cartridge available for sporting uses for many years. It offered a flatter trajectory due to the larger powder capacity permitted by the belted magnum case, but it never attained the same level of popularity as the.270 Winchester due to its higher price and offer limit.

Currently, a new generation of.277 “The.277 Winchester Short Magnum, which propels a bullet of the same weight 200 fps faster from a short action mechanism; the.27 Nosler, which is even faster but necessitates a long magnum action; and the more recent 6.8 Western, which is essentially a modification of the 270 WSM firing a heavier and larger bullet with a higher ballistic coefficient However, none of these modern cartridges compares to the 270 Win’s level of popularity and provides little benefit for actual hunting.

The.270 Win is still one of the most widely used loads in part because to its international recognition. Manufacturers of ammunition and firearms in other countries offer this chambering in a variety of firearm options, including bolt-actions, single-shots, lever-actions, pump-actions, autoloaders, and even a few double rifles (such as the Browning BLR).
