https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.270_Winchester The .270 Winchester, conceived solely as a big game hunting cartridge, became very popular, in part, due to the widespread praises of gun writer Jack O'Connor who used the cartridge for 40 years and touted its merits in the pages of Outdoor Life[5][6] as well as other renowned gun writers of the time such as late Col. Townsend Whelen.

Rifled slug barrels.
How people ever got caught up in the creedmore rage baffles me? Whats wrong with rifled slug barrels? Unless you lived in a deer rifle state, rifled slug barrels were a godsend for people trying to get some actual accuracy for anyrhing past point blank range.

Yes, a 300 win mag will safely shoot a 200 grain bullet at the same velocity the 7mm mag shoots a 175
