SOLD/EXPIRED Weatherby Vanguard 270win

I do. I converted two of them about 5 years back. Gamechanger! It's the best western hunting rig I own. I rarely shoot my 300 mag anymore. 165s and 170s with BC above .650s are not only flat wind defying missiles, they hit hard and penetrate like a hot knife through butter. Like I said I'm tempted!!!
What kind of velocity are you getting with the 170's?
 
I get 3030 fps avg with Retumbo out of one of my 270 WSM w/24.5" barrel. 170 Berger EOL. And 2844 fps from my 270 win with Rldr 26. 165 ABLR. This is a 23" barrel. I can go faster with both but accuracy starts to open up. These are both .50-.60 moa out to 800 yds. I've shot my wsm to 1300 yds and hit basketball size rocks 🪨 just for fun.
 
Went out and shot it yesterday, 15 shots with some RL26 and 170gr BTs. Avg velocity with 59gr was 2940, 5 shots.

This group was 58.5gr, 5 shots
