.270

.270 or 30-06, can't go wrong w/ either

I shot them both again on Saturday. Man, it was a tough decision process but the ‘06 gets the nod.

Thanks for the replies- hopefully I’ll have a buck pic to share.

Not even a question. 270.

Longer shots id go .270 any shot inside of 300 yards id go 06. I think the 270 is a little more versatile at all ranges though

 

[Trr15]

Shoot .270 rounds out of the 30-06 or 30-06 rounds out of the .270. That way you don’t have to choose. It works like that, right?

My grandpa had a saying: "There are two types of deer hunters, those who use a .30-06 and those who should."

I've seen a 180 grain take out the entire front quarter on a deer with a poor hit. I'd opt for the 130. As stated above, more than enough to get the job done. I hunt deer with a 150 grain 30.06, but that's as high as I'll go
