Default 25-06 or 270 WSM

Thinkin of gettin one of these two. I always wanted to get a 25-06, just seemed perfect to me for hunting here in wisconsin; coyotes, fox,deer, possibly bear, andenough gun for somehuntin out west if i get the chance to go, like muleys or pronghorn. The 270 WSMseems nice to me becuase of the short action, and the 270 caliber is a great, proven caliber. Also, that could be used on elk, but it is a little big for coyotes here where i live.I can handload so availiblity isn't really a factor to me. What do all you guys think would be better? This is gonna be my first bolt rifle, i have a win 94, 30-30 now, and probably the only one a buy for a long time so im looking for something to cover a little of everything.
