hoghntr Report post Posted July 28, 2014 I have box of ammo you can buy when you get the gun.. my shoulder did not like the 270 wsm very much.. not much at all! 2 shots and I traded her away. dont shoot 1 of these dudes 4 months after a shoulder reconstruction. :'( 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bowfishAZ Report post Posted July 28, 2014 The recoil is less than my 300 WM. Id say its equivalent to a 30-06.. My 115lb wife will be shooting my 270 WSM with no problems.. But then again she killed her buck last year with my 300 WM.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then again she killed her buck last year with my 300 WM.. Yeah 1st hunt video I watched after my painful 2 shots was a chick smokin a big bull with a 270wsm.... oh well. maybe its all in the stock? me dont know or care she is gone. but I would suggest whoever wants 1 to shoot a few first. I would have another if it had a break and that is the only way. just look at the bullet it will explain everything Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
