.270 Winchester is a popular big-game hunting cartridge prized for a flat-shooting trajectory and good performance on medium and larger game such as deer and elk. Recoil is moderate, more than a .243 but generally less punishing than larger magnums. Ammunition is widely available and reasonably priced in a solid selection of hunting bullet weights. It suits hunters who want a proven, flat-shooting cartridge for open-country big game.
