The .270, as much as folks bash it, has always given bang flops for me. That said, when stand hunting, I've noticed when I shoot something with a .300 Savage or smaller, deer will show up again after a relatively short period of time. Light off 60 grains of powder (especially out of a 22" barrel) and you may not see a another deer for a day or two. YMMV, of course.
