[QUOTE="Another Casual, post: 1703665, member: 89878"] I'm happy with my PRC and I personally believe either would fill the role you have laid out. I kind of view it as a .270 with a little extra and better bullet selection. 140s at 3050-3100 would be a stout 270 load. I wouldn't hesitate to take a 270 out for mostly deer and some elk, don't see this as any different. At the end of the day being able to shoot well with a rifle matters the most. A couple other things to consider that may help you narrow it down: Do you hand load? If so, compare bullet options. Are you recoil sensitive? Might need a heavier rifle for 28 nosler if you are. Barrel length/overall length for each. With the short action you can get a longer barrel at the same overall length. Etc [/QUOTE]
