Have had several of each and on whitetails around here I never could tell a nickles difference. Both killed deer dead and that death was pretty much always instant.

100 or 117 grain Gamekings in the 25 and 130 or 150 Gamkekings in the 270.

Generally under 100 yards in my area.

Uncle has used 117 SP Interlock or SST in his since '78 and very few deer ever make a track after being shot.

The .27 may have an advantage on elk with a 150 but something tells me a 115 Partition would work just about the same if shots were identical.

The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
