My wench never wants to come hunting with me at all, let alone just sitting in the back of the truck all the time! Lucky guy. Got a deer then got a dear, in the pickup bed no less! What a day. Lots of wenches would take exception to the expression "use". His must be a good sport.
What fresh Hell is this?

That 110 TTSX load is a beast. Haters take note.

First I dislike recoil at every level. Second I like to see impacts. I can see impacts at 100 yards with the scope set on 20X. Third why not?

I've tinkered with a bunch of different cartridges for deer. In my opinion, nothing works any better than the 270. Several others work great, but the 270 is in the "as good as it gets" category.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

Building another 270 after fooling with many other cartridges I'm going back to my first centerfire deer killer, the awesome 270. But I just had to test all those .224, .243,.257, .264,.284,.308,.338,.358,.429 and .458 diameter bullets out! No complaints at all though. I'm going to use the old tried and true bullets, the 130 gr. Hornady, 150 gr. Ballistic Tips and some stashed 130 gr. Nosler solid base bullets. Probably going to sell my 280 AI as I could never really see that it was better than the 270 or as good as the 30-06.
