[QUOTE="CogburnR, post: 835393, member: 29174"] I think the 270-08 would be a great cartridge. A nice little Model 7 or M70 with a skinny little barrel would be a great antelope and deer carry rifle and would have plenty of power for shooting as far as you would want to with a little light rifle. The bullet selection has some stellar performers including the 130CH Berger, 140HPBT Sierra, 150NPT, and 165 Matrix and they can be currently found on the shelves. Something that is an advantage these days. Brass is plentiful and it takes some powder that is readily available also these days. 4007sc, 2000mr, etc can be found on the shelves. As stated the 7-08, 260, and 6.5x284 have it surrounded pretty well but what the heck, if you want one build it! [/QUOTE]
