For use on deer or smaller game the 25-06 will do anything that the 270win can.For elk or moose,both will work,but neither is ideal.

Yes I agree.

The .270 does what it does but better so I can't see the point of the 25.06 except to fill your gunsafe with another weapon;
You are contradicting yourself.You agree that on deer or smaller gamethe 25-06 will do anything that the 270win will,and you agree that neither the 25-06 or the 270win are ideal for elk or moose.So since the 25-06 produces less recoil and shoots a smaller bullet that is more suitable for coyotes and varmints,it is the 270win that has no point other than to fill your gunsafe with another weapon.
