Thereis no better deer gun out there than the 270, bar none! Some may come up with a reason why "their" pet caliber is better, but no one can give any intelligent reason why the 270 isn't a great choice.
Sure there are guns out there that shoot harder, but no one can claim that the 270 or 30-06 are too light for muleys. People or certain types of bullets mayhave let their 270 down, but not the other way around.
I loudly second the motion. I love my 270.It is the most bestest.
(altho I mostly hunt with my 7mm RemMag and '06). Wife uses her 30-06, and I have lots of 220gr silvertip ammo for grizz in AK if we go.
I hate these "who thinks..." and "who here..." questions. Seems like they take up too much bandwidth stirring the pot to no good end.
