The .270 Winchester caliber (7 x 64.5 mm) is very similar to the German 7 x 64 caliber, but the latter is usually loaded with heavier bullets.
The caliber is pleasant to shoot, very accurate and well suited for long distances. The cartridge is very suitable for light and medium game, such as roe deer, mouflon and chamois, but it is usually not recommended for heavier game.
To achieve a particularly elongated trajectory, pointed bullets with polymers or hollow points should be used.
Historically, the caliber was developed from the somewhat stronger .30-06 caliber.
While the caliber enjoys a high popularity worldwide as a universal caliber, in Germany it is mainly used for mountain jadgd.
