But my real point is with similar weight bullets - at normal hunting ranges - there is not enough difference between the two to justify a “superiority” claim and if “actual data” is used then the dead animals that I’ve taken and seen taken over the last 50 years (with both) supports they are equally effective when the bullets reach the vitals. I do like and have several of both along with plenty of.30-06s, 7X64s, and 7mm mags.

Ahhh see Little Stix has joined the fray so this clueless (whatever adjective LS is using) is out👍



Never claimed superiority one time..... We are just merely debating cartridges and bullets. Just sharing info with fellow shooters.
Only statement I made was the .280 has more case capacity than the .270 and has a higher bullet BC choice. Then as usual, it got twisted by others.

I personally could give 270 shiitts what anyone hunts or shoots.... As long as you're doing one or the other, or both, life is good.
But, while doing one or both, why not use and / all components in your favor??


That is fair enough and point taken.
