is this a good scope for a 270?

I am using it on a lever action rifle chambered in 357Mag/38Spec and it has very little kick. It works well for me. I only shoot out to 100 yards but it is always right on.

It's a great scope for a 270. I mounted mine on a Ruger M77 in 270 caliber. Shoots great!

Hi, the answer is yes, I have this scope on my 270 and have had no problems what so ever. It's the only scope I use on all my rifles. I just put one on my Apex 45-70 and it does the job. I love Nikons period. Jim

I have the same scope on a .308 but went with the 4 x 12 on the .270. I really think it would be just fine.

Great scope out to 250 yards any further you may need 3 x 9 x 50. That 22-250 is a flat shooter. Good luck.

It handles the shock of a .270 just fine, so it should be ok for your 30 30.

Yes, I'm pleased with the scope. Be advised though it is mounted on a 17hmr rifle with low recoil! Just saying!

I think so Deborah. I have it on my 270 and does great . the crosshairs are fine with a single small black dot in center.

I'm using this scope on my 22-250. it's a very bright and clear scope. At 13-35 yrds it should be clear.

Yes, but the ballistics of a .270 and .223 are substantially different and the bullet drop calculations built into the scope will be off.

Being that it is 10-40x zoom, it is great for over 75 yds. Acquiring a target with 10x zoom is sometimes difficult close range. That said, it has great clarity up to around 30x, and can see clearly around 350-400yds. The 40x can get a little hairy, but rarely is it needed. To answer your question, yes, it would work well with your .270. My only issue would be how big the scope is. I have a .22 mag with 22" barrel, and I think it would look questionable with such a massive scope. But that is a matter of opinion/preference.Hope this helps.

Yes it is a good scope for the money . The 3030 has a moderate recoil . With the 50 lens you will need high mounts or see thru mounts to install on a lever action rifle

I'm sure it will fit; however, this item is so cheaply made that I would not recommend purchasing it. I took it out of the box and before I could use it the first time, for my .270, the small screw snapped off into the threads of the laser. Now I have a useless boresighter that can be used for nothing more than a hand held laser pointer.

Not in my opinion. The scope doesnt have enough eye relief for a heavy recoiling rifle. These scopes are a bottom of the barrel optic from a great company, mine had issues out of the box. Wont be buying any more cheap Burris optics. You are better off springing for the US made $300-400 versions from Burris, way better quality and materials than the overseas produced models like this.

Yes, I believe so... We have had one on a 12 gauge shooting hornady sabot slugs for years. They kick quite a bit. We recently put one on a 30.06 I have a regular 270 with a Nikon scope on it and it does not kick as hard as either of those other guns so I think you will be ok...

I have not personally used it, but on some gun forums it's been reported to work great on 308's, so should be no problem on a 270.

Yes, I had this scope attached to a Remington 700 .308. The scope did an outstanding job.

I highly doubt that the reticle will work well with a 270, unless you make yourself a dope sheet that shows the distance the 270 round falls in each of the circles. As you know, 22lr falls much quicker, so it would be an ordeal trying to figure the drop of a 270 using a 22lr reticle. As far as the recoil messing up a Nikon? Unlikely, but I just don't know on that. I hope that answers your question.

I have this scope and its really nice, its more like a rubber textured film it very scuff and scratch resistant. Have mine on a savage .270 handles recoil just fine. Nice optic for the price.
