- The .270 Weatherby Magnum (Wby Mag) is a long-length magnum cartridge developed by the Weatherby firearms company in 1943. It is based on an elongated .300 H&H Magnum case and uses a .277 caliber bullet, making it an ideal choice for those seeking tremendous performance with minimal recoil.
The .270 Wby Mag's efficient ballistics allow it to maintain flat trajectories and impressive retained energy levels at further ranges. This makes it great for hunters looking to take down large game such as elk or bear with extreme accuracy at extended distances. Its low recoil also makes it suitable for novice shooters learning how to shoot, while its high velocity ensures unmatched knockdown power when needed.Technical specifications of caliber .270 Weath.
