Ah, for cripe's sake, just for the sake of compromise, split her right up the middle and get a 264 Win mag.

It out varmints the 25-06 with 100 gr bullets to 3600 fps.
Kills little deer better than either the 270 or 25-06 with 120 gr bullets at 3300 fps.
Outshines the 270 by moving 130's at least 100 fps faster.
And kills elk with a 160 gr bullet with a SD of .328 moving at 2900 fps.

And it does all this with less than ten grains of additional powder.

Heck we don't need no stinkin 7 mags either. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I will now remove my tongue from my cheek.
