For a deer cartridge the 25-06 is very hard to beat.On deer sized game,it will be just as effective as a 270win,but it also makes a good cartridge for coyote or other varmints.

BTW I have never found that a 270 did less damage then a 3006 or 7mm rem mag for that matter. Shot placement and bullet construction are the leaders in this department. I still own a 270 win in a browning but my 7mm rem mag see's all the CF action lopers to moose no problems. I do switch ammo for deerseason butrarily combo hunt. If I doI'll go with the bullet designed for the larger game. My choice for this the Barnes TSX, does very little meat damage even if the shoulders are hit. Might be something to consider for your 06'???
As to the BOSS, no thanks for reason's already mentioned. As to the Eclipse not really a humping it on the prairie's rifle as they are heavy.
Nothing wrong with 270 but seeing you already own a 3006 they are pretty close in terms of deer medicine. Personally I don't like the .243 for canadian deer,I say pass!
