[QUOTE="GrantW, post: 2511069, member: 119307"] So when I look at a caliber I wanna see the usable range of bullets and try to be practical on that. I like to think where one caliber stops my next caliber picks up. (Relatively of course) In my head I don’t worry about super light for caliber bullets. So the usable range of that 300 is 150’s and up. So I’d favor a 270 or the 6.5-06 because the heavy for caliber versions of those rounds which is what you want in the long range aspect puts them right at the lower range of the 300. Yes there is a little overlap but it’s grey area. I think, in this instance I’d do the 6.5. My only downside I can see is that with the target crowd you have a lot competition for bullets. Cool factor and old school nostalgia go to the hot rod .270 though. [/QUOTE]
