The OP wants another rifle. He's got a 270 already, the step up to 30-06 isn't that much. If he wants more I'd say step up to the 300WM. You can always sell it if you decide it's too much. You don't tell us much about your hunting experience, and shooting experience. If you have a friend with a 300WM borrow it and shoot it. Sometimes need has nothing to do with it. I just like certain cartridges that I consider classics. I also tend to like the heavy for caliber bullets they come in. Simple as that. Get what you want. Go hunt and have fun.
