New Project....
Well, here we go I found a good deal on a Factory 24" 270Win tube.Thinking of cutting it to 16.5" then rechamber it to a 270 Weatherby Mag.I also picked up another 26" 300Mag tube that may soon be a 17" 300H&H just to see if it is as good as the 300Mag.What do you guys think..? Of a 270WM.

IMHO, i would look at the wsm case instead of the weatherby. Cases arent nearly as expensive and in that short barrel, i think that the wsm case will give you VERY similar velocities.

Remember the longer the case, the less rifling the bullet has to travel. I think you'll have better accuracy with more spin on the bullet.
Just my opinion.
