[QUOTE="Texas Hunter, post: 263607, member: 15656"] I hunt whitetail with a 270 Winchester. I'm currently using a 140 gr Nosler AccuBond bullet. This was my first high powered rifle and I purchased it specifically for deer, I have added a number of center fire rifles to my collection not due to any particular reason other than I like guns, although I use different game for an excuse. If I were to own only 1 rifle I would purchase a 30.06, that's what I bought for both my sons and I've now added to my collection. I believe these type questions were easier to answer before the bullet selection for most popular calibers became so wide. The 270 is essentially a necked down 30.06 so it shoots flatter. Instead of purchasing a 7 mag I went with a 300 Win mag. My suggestion would be to compare the balistics for both and make your decision based on which round will deliver the best performance for your hunting conditions and what other rifles you own and compare them all.
