I've killed the majority of deer with a .270 Mountain I bought at a garage sale in the spring of '88 for $400. Way before I went rifle loony.
Couple years ago I made it over as a sort of driven game rifle w/o straight pull action.
Timney Calvin Elite set at 1.25-lb, Kinetic Research Group bolt knob, and a Romeo5 squatting on the front bridge. It's my ATV Varmint Rig loaded with the Rem 115- grain Low Recoil round; a gentle 6.8 SPC LONG.
So far only kilt possum & 'dillo, but I may try it on a WT this FALL
