Thanks for bringing this back up. A lot of common sense advice in Finn and Ross's article.
We all like to argue small looney details. Reality is that one would be much better off picking a cartridge from 6.5-30, with a suitable bullet in a rifle you like and shoot the heck out of it.
I am comfortable with a 270 because of years of use, 1000's and 1000's of rounds downrange, with multiple hundreds of animals in the freezer in the hands of at least eight different hunting partners and family members.
