Pre 64 Model 70 in 264 Win Mag. Sightron Big Sky SII 3-12x42. 130 gr Swift Scirocco going 3250 FPS.

270 WSM. A 130 gr Interbond going 3360 FPS kills stuff where it stands. I guess I will be different and say I dont know why anybody would have a 7mm when the 270 WSM does everyhting it can do, on a short action.

Kimber 8400 Classic in 270 WSM topped with a Sightron SII Big Sky 3-9x42. Spits 130 gr Interbonds into 1/2" groups @ 3360 FPS and kills stuff where it stands.

The Hornady 129 gr SST would work well at that velocity as well.
