This new .270 cartridge was the third commercial .270 ever produced, and the first one in 60 years. [1] The 270 WSM is an improvement over the older 270 Winchester providing higher velocity with bullets of the same weight, and thus a flatter trajectory and more energy. Velocities tend to be about 250 ft/s (76 m/s) faster, in a cartridge that is ...
In 1925, Winchester introduced the .270 Winchester, previously known as the .270 WCF, based on the 30-03 Springfield case necked down to .277" (6.8 mm). Although the .270 Winchester was not an instant success, within a few decades it became one of the most popular big game hunting cartridges for mid sized game worldwide, because of its relatively mild recoil and flat trajectory within ...
The .270 Winchester cartridge is equipped with a 130-grain bullet traveling at approximately 3,060 feet per second (fps). When sighted in to intersect 3 inches above the line of sight at 100 yards (about 90 meters), it maintains a trajectory that rises no more than 3.5 inches and aligns with the line of sight around 270 yards.
The .270 Weatherby Magnum was the first belted magnum based on the .300 H&H Magnum to be developed by Roy Weatherby in 1943. [2] The cartridge is short enough to function in standard-length long actions with a brass length of 2.549" or 64.74mm and an overall length of about 3.295".
The 12.7×55mm cartridge is used in some Russian firearms such as the VKS bullpup sniper rifle, the ShAK-12 bullpup battle rifle and the RSh-12 revolver.The cartridge can carry a projectile weighing between from 108 grains and 1173 grains and is predominantly used to fire heavy subsonic loads.
These included the MF 130, 133, 135, 145, 148, 150, 158, 165, 168, 175, 178, 180, 185 and 188. In 1969, the MF 1000 series was introduced. This model lineup included the MF 1080, 1100, 1130 and 1150. In 1971 the first articulated tractors were introduced: MF 1500 and 1800. The smaller MF 1200 (1972) was built in Manchester for the European market.
Different silencer designs. Gun rights advocates, gun media and the firearms industry generally claim that the word "silencer" is defined as meaning total silence, while "suppressor" or "moderator" are defined as meaning only reduced sound intensity, in spite of its original definition.
The cartridge can be extremely accurate to 300 yards (270 m) and beyond, but may not retain enough terminal energy to reliably drop medium game at that distance. [ 4 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Highly experienced hunters use the .243 Winchester to routinely drop bucks up to 250 pounds (110 kg), [ 2 ] while less experienced hunters can be just as capable ...
