You can shoot a 140 Absolute Hammer at 3300+ that hit like a dumptruck or a 175 Sierra Tipped Game King. The Berger 170 is a really solid bullet. Great BC and high velo with the low bearing surface. I think Hornady is going to come out with something in the 160 range soon in Eld-M or maybe 168 ELD-X. Nosler's 165 ABLR is a hell of a bullet but you have to sort them and don't chase lands. They like jump. You have a tough decision!! Good luck!

How fast you pushing those 175's?I just got a 270WSM together with a 7.5 twist have 400 175gr Sierra GKT hopping it does well the BC is pretty high on it should work pretty **** good at long range
Tons of 6.8 Western brass in the stores right now and no rifles. Buy 400 brass and make a 6.5 Western with 7.5 twist and run Hammers till the cows come home.
Thanks. Where's it located.This guy re barreled my win70 270wsm to a 6.5 prc with a proof barrel, it is a badass rifle.
