Wizard, the capabilities of the two cartridges are so close that it makes little sense to get one if you have the other, from a practical hunting point of view.<P>For example, if you have the .308, you would be better served to get a rangefinder and have a target elevation turret put on your scope.<P>However, if their are other reasons for the purchase, then practicality is out the window. Have fun with it. It would be hard to beat the .270 as a loaner or backup rifle for general purpose hunting.<P>Good shooting, Tauls
