I have shot the 30-06 and the 270 alot. I have found that the .270 that I shoot, whichis a Savage, is on the money. I can shoot a nickel at 100m w the .270. I prefer the 30-06 for an all around hunting rifle. CMP has some military grade 30-06 which is pretty much the BEST and the most accurate that you can get. The .270 flies a little faster, but does'nt have the impact I like from the 30-06
