For my 300 yards and in, point and shoot purposes a 6.5 Creedmoor or 260 Remington flinging 100 grain Ballistic Tips would be pretty nice. My 243 flinging 80 grain TTSX's fills the role this season however.
Yes, AND
It's all in fun for me. For the modest shooting distances available to me in my hunting area almost anything will do. 300 yards is a far piece there and deer aren't that hard to kill.
This too. For myself it's 400 yd. point and shoot. No ranging, No read chart, No twist dials. Point & Shoot.
The 270 W, 130s @ 3100 fps and
The 7 RM, 140s @ 3200-3300 fps serve me very well.
I know I don't shoot 400 yds very often but it CAN and HAS happened. I'm prepared.
I have a 6mm Rem and 6.5X55 (in M 70 FTWT with a moderate throat). They're close but not the same. FOR ME.
