The 270WSM does and will live up to it's billing.
I drive 130gr. bullets to 3325fps, with hand loads, and of the factory ammunition I've chronographed, it usually comes out pretty close to published numbers.
Another hidden benifit is the case life, the blocky designed WSM has. I'm on about my 6th loading for some casings, and Bushrat has gotten around 15 loadings from some of his brass.
Now is the WSM a quantum leap beyond the 270Win? Nope, but it has that certain quality about it that sets it just far enough apart from it to give it a certain apeal.
