[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 957540, member: 10429"] All 3 guns will do the job without any issues. With the 280 I suspect the down range ballistics/energy is probably the best with something in the 162 to 168 grn bullets (bergers, nosler). On the other hand (now I might get some grief from this but) the 3006 can do a lot more with the availability of loads than either the 280 or the 270. You can get over the counter 220 grain moose/beer killers and in the past 50 grain accelerators bullets. So the 3006 has had a wide range of loaded bullets that you can buy and hunts lots of different game. Anything from blowing up ground hogs to hunting Kodiak bears. And if you hand load you can probably stuff a 230 or 240 grain bullet from berger or serria in there but it would probably not be worth it. I would say the 220 round nose is about big as you want to go for up close and personal like 100 to 150 yrds. But shooting at the 500yrd buck the 280, 3006, and then 270 would get my volt. [/QUOTE]
