If you allude to a similar expression of "light in the loafers", I may be inclined to agree, since it did contribute greatly in the conclusion of a 6 hour climb up a radical incline strewn with boulders the size of Volkswagens 100 miles above the Arctic Circle on a self-guided hunt..270 is alternative lifestyle, if you get my meaning.
It's a fun argument that some of the traditional chambering guys like to make.I bet in a one building town - gas pump, post office and groceries - some place like Dale Oregon - you will find 30-06,270 and 308 on the shelf. If as I have done by going into some less used calibers ( 257 Roberts, 300 H&H, or 338-06, ... ) you had better have left home with it because odds of finding it on a shelf in eastern oregon is pretty slim.
2 shots each yesterday with the .257, and .308, both are ready for the woods.I will be taking a .308 and a .257 Roberts deer hunting, and back to the .270 short mag and .338 win mag for elk season. variety is the spice of life.
Those look like some big holes !True that! However, it is helpful when trying to kill things.
This is from a ladder test I'm working on. Not the velocity I want, but more than enough. I'll circle back around to this load if I can't get this kind of accuracy as I bump up the charges.

Pitons and a hammock would come highly recommended. Another consideration might be the nearest water just off my right elbow in the photo.The 7mm-08 would have camped closer to the top.
30 cal.Those look like some big holes !
