The .270 would be fine....but only if you were hunting gay animals. For real manley-man animals it's got to be .30-06 or more.

The secret to the .30/06 is that it has just a little more caliber and just a little bullet weight for the average game hunted and the recoil is just inside the average persons capability in order to place those bullets well.

The same thing can be said for the .375 H&H when used on animals over 600 pounds. Just a little.more enough, to make a discernable difference.


When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
