[QUOTE="budlight, post: 2991091, member: 2939"] I'm a lifetime 270 person with out to 29 inch barrels and 26 inch 25-06. 133 grain .257 or heavies in a 277 just cause blow throughs with little or no mushrooming. High sectional density combines with slower MV don't work well. You has to stay above the bullets min designed feet per second. Some of the modern designed bullets have made some improvements. I jumped on the 169.5 - 190 grain .277 VLD band wagon and practised at 600 yards for mule deer hunting and the majority of deer always seem to be sub 200 yards where I experienced blow throughs. I went back to lighter bullets in both calibers and end up with DRT! [/QUOTE]
