Thats a freaking shame man. you shouldn't have to register any guns with government agency! the only guns that I own that are registered are my pistols and I don't even like them knowing I own those! a .270 is a great freaking round. my cousin uses that for his deer rifle and I load him 130 grain rounds. that ball is coming out of that barrel at around 3300 FPS
but up there if you so much as hit a twig that ball is no longer on target. I will say this tho he rarely misses and when he shoots that deer does not move they drop right in their tracks! My 30-06 on the other hand will plow through trees and still kill the intended target
