Re: 270 wsm for hogs?

I have 2 270 short mags and love them. use them for deer hunting and like previously stated are a tad better than the standard 270 win.

question about warm barrels and groups

So Im an impatient person. When I go to shoot I usually take all my shots in a group right after each other with no to very little cool down. Im wondering how much does it affect accuracy? I was shooting a couple days ago working up a new load and found a decent one that put the first 3 shots in .5 ...
