The 270 Weatherby Magnum was the first belted magnum created by Roy Weatherby in 1943, based on the.300 H&H Magnum. The cartridge was one of a series of Weatherby Magnums that shared a 2.545" (64.64mm) case length at the time of its introduction. The.270 established a tiny but devoted following, similar to that of the rest of the Weatherby line of cartridges, which has remained stable to this day, despite new developments like the.270WSM. The 270 Weatherby Magnum is a hard-hitting, powerful, flat-shooting cartridge. The.270 Weatherby has about 200 ft/s faster performance with any bullet weight due to its higher pressure and larger case that holds more power than the.270 Winchester. Despite its distinctive case design, it is not a specialist cartridge, but rather an outstanding all-around medium game cartridge with minimal recoil (for a magnum). It delivers powerful shock for quick killing at ranges of up to 325 yards. Broad wounding lasts around 450 yards, after which wound channels become more commensurate to the calibre. The 270 Weatherby Magnum is best suited for light to medium games. Using a bullet of sound construction on larger animals such as Elk, a bullet of sound construction can generate broad, quick bleeding wounds and free-flowing exit wounds on game weighing up to 320kg (700lb). The 270 Weatherby Magnum is the preferred calibre. It is adequate for larger game animals. Regardless of newer inventions, the 270 Weatherby Magnum continues to keep its own as an emphatic killer of light to medium game, and it does so without creating excruciating recoil - two features that will assure its popularity for many years to come.
