[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 1722118, member: 100742"] Hi, Lenny Foffa Here, I am a life time fan of the .270 Win. especially in a light Bolt Action Rifle, and I own three rifles chambered in .270, and a Weatherby chambered in 270 Weatherby Mag. but I also own 2 , 30-06 Bolt Action Rifles. All have a specific use, in my mind. Both the 30-06 and the .270 win are really excellent hunting cartridges. My Weatherby ULTRALIGHT , in .270 Win , with a 130 Grain Ballistic tip ,is my #1 choice for Farmland Whitetail deer hunting. Yes I know I can shoot the 140Grn ,or the 150grn, but the 130 is so explosive at 120 to 150 yards, it's amaizing . However on trips to Maine , where the cover is very think and dense, my 20 inch Custom Mauser Action Manlicher stocked 30-06, with a 165 Grn Accubond ,is what I would take into the woods. In Summary If you own those two Great Classic American Big Game cartridges I see no real use ,or need , for the 6.5 Creedmoor, for hunting. Just my 2 cents !!!! [/QUOTE]
