270. The real debate is 270 vs 30-06. Thank god i have both
All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

And now by 500 yard energy! I can't read those little chart numbers on my screen. I presume the pink hi-kited ones are the .270s.....

Lol, probably need to change that fill color since its hard to read. 280 is pink, of course.
Maybe I should rainbow the 270?

At the risk of getting scolded - how do the 162 Amax's hold up to elk/moose? I've shot them before and they are accurate but I've always been a bit skeptical when elk/moose are involved. They are not an interlock design bullet. Never put one in an elk, but have seen them crush moose. Pulled one out of the off shoulder last fall. Have seen others give pass throughs with similar placement. Their ballistics (external and terminal) are at the top of the pile.
Suck bullets simply suck.

All 3, including the 30-06 are in my safe at the moment. I don't hear any fighting going on in there! You can replace them all with a 7-08. WITH a 270 OR 280 there is no need.... for any LESSER cartridges! ! i.e. there is a 25-06 in every 270 Win. knowwhatImeanVern? Jerry

It's the epi tome of excellence....
Quite a bit of crossover in them all, which is why these threads last for eons. Hard to believe that a cartridge that can be out shot with a 260 can almost out shoot a 7 Mag.
Doesn't make sense to some. Its "X is better than Y", period. No consideration of the other 99 variables.
