.270 Winchester Rifles

Every .270 here is a bolt-action hunting rifle, so the real choice is weight against steadiness. Light rifles like the Christensen Arms Ridgeline FFT are easier to carry in the mountains but kick more and are harder to hold still, while heavier rifles with longer barrels are calmer to shoot and get a little more velocity. Compare triggers, stocks and how the scope mounts.
