I have no interest in talking energy or whatever but I do have insight into the OPs original inquiry.
I have built two fast twist .270 Win rifles. Why? Well, I wanted to. One was an 8 twist Brux at 25” on a Remington 700 and the other was a 8 twist Carbon Six at 21” on a Kimber 84L Montana. The 25” pushed the 165 ABLR at 3000 FPS and was a legit 1/4 MOA gun at 700 yards. The 21” pushed the 165 ABLR at 2750 and was easily 1/2 MOA. I consider the ABLR to be one of the best killing bullets I have used in all calibers I have tried it in. That said, I’ve never shot an elk with one, just 50 or so deer.
Hope this helps the OP
