In the introduction to his piece on the 270, here's what Finn had to say on the decidedly non-gay, all-American 270 Win... from his book
Hunting Rifles And Cartridges:
IIRC, JO'C wrote that he once took 2 deer with 1 shot when he shot through a buck and hit/killed the doe that was on the buck's off-side. Then, years later, he had to use 2 shots to take 1 animal, don't recall where or what, but that is how I remember it.
