270 Win Twist Rates?

[GAHunterJim]

After discussion with someone with extensive experience who has tried 8s, 9s and 10s, he recommended 1:9 as the best option.

I went with a 1:8 twist, 22” carbon six barrel. Going to be taking a close look at the new Barnes LRX 155gr .277 bullets just announced, should handle nearly any situation I come across from antelope to elk? Anyone have any other good ideas on do all, fast twist bullet?

Curious if you have an update for how this barrel change went? I am also considering rebarreling my 270. I love the cartridge, but want a threaded barrel to be able to add a supressor or brake. Was very curious about the newer faster twist barrels that might be good for the 150gr ABLR.

The 150gr ABLR shot great out of my factory length M70 .270. I haven’t shot them since I chopped it but everything else that shot good before still does.

People will say [.277 is] a fudd caliber

6.5 mm is more "fudd" than .277 is...

Have you two aligned on what a fudd is so you can effectively determine which is fuddier? Do we have a fuddiness scale?
