I tend to agree with rural doc.
And yet, what makes the .270 so much more universally capable than the .25-06?
I believe it to be true yet I can't put my finger on it.
A partner owns a .25-06 and is going elk hunting for the first time this fall. He stepped up to a .300wsm for this trip. I'm relying once again on my .270 with 150NP. Is it so much more capable than his .25-06 would have been with 120NP? I don't know what that answer is and its bugging me. It might be only in my brain.
