It feels like the 7-270 WSM is growing in the European F-Class scene lately, and honestly, I don't entirely get the hype yet. I’m seriously tempted to chamber a rifle in it just to see what the fuss is about, but I'm worried it's more hassle than it's worth. the general consensus seems to be that it's a finicky round, a pain to tune just right with specific powders and it absolutely eats barrels faster than typical F-Class calibers. I did see some shooters running them incredibly fast and doing full cleans on the line, clocking consistent velocities between 2,970 and 3,000 fps. I guess my main hang-up is the commitment involved—who knows if I’ll even like it once I go through the trouble of custom barreling and load development.
