Some people are just afraid to admit that the .270 is a perfectly adequate cartridge, because then, they have no reason to use a magnum all the time. The .270 with 150 Gr bullets will kill an elk, period.
Thanks for the kind words about the .270. It seems that a lot of people like to overlook or disregard the .270 as a second rate round, not capable of taking game larger than a deer. From what I understand the .270 was the fastest, flattest shooting round for a lot of years and is still a lot more practical than some of these super souped up magnum rounds.
