.270 Win Fast Twist= Needs Catchy Name

[Muddyboots]

There was one name .270PITA but I was starting to think .270Dumass since most of the problems were self inflicted!

How about for yours personally the 270 THOR. Since your main focus is the hammers and it's gonna swing them HARD lol.

Agree- 270 THOR.

270 SI for self inflicted. Thor sounds better.

6.8 Cum?

LOL!!!

We need two names one for the 270 Winchester and one for the 270 WSM.

Muddyboots, please give us names. I won't be able to sleep until we have names!!!!!

 

[Western4444]

Exactly, and "6.8 Western" is kind of catchy; but I like the sound of 270 Western better. I've been calling my .270 a "270" forever; so 6.8 throws me.
I've got a 1:8" twist .277 Hawk Hill barrel on order, and I'm looking forward to using it this hunting season

My vote for the 270 WSM with a fast twist is the 270 Western. It is catchy and makes a statement on the 6.8 Western. The 270 Winchester is not so easy.

So its whole different cartridge with fast twist, longer barrel and longer throat. So why not give this old cartridge a catchy name for it. We have the .270AI so I think we need something to separate it from the standard cartridge. I am calling my new one .270 Heavy, got .270 Fatboy as suggestion. I am pretty sure the name was for the cartridge, I hope.

What do you think? PLEASE! No CM!

270 Tornato.....270 whirlwind.....270 hurricane?????
Or....the old Tasmanian devil cartoons......270 Devil?

 

[Hand Skills]

Haha, .270 WCM

Went to Range Today with .270 whatchamcallit
