The 270 Weatherby Magnum was developed by Roy Weatherby in 1944 and was one of the original offerings when his gun company was founded a year later. Based on the belted 300 H&H case shortened to 2.549 inches, it can be housed in 30-06 length-actions and is easily the fastest 270-caliber cartridge, shooting flatter than the others and delivering more energy. Weatherby loads include a 130-grain bullet at 3375 feet per second and a 150-grain bullet at 3245, very high velocity that makes it one of the flattest-shooting commercial cartridges and a fine choice for hunting game up to elk at longer ranges. It is the second-most popular Weatherby Magnum cartridge (after the 300 Weatherby Magnum). Federal also offers factory loads, and a few other rifle manufacturers have offered 270 Weatherby Magnum rifles. — Craig Boddington
