Default RE: .270 vs 30-06

The first rifle I ever owned was a J.C.Higgins (Husqvarna Action) .30-06in 1951..I shot it huntingfor many years, even in the US Army with the M1 Garand. In the 1970's I bought a Rem .270 and hunted with it until the 90's and bought a Ruger M77 6.5mmSwede and have hunted with it until now.......

What I liked about the .30-06 over the .270 was the selection of ammo. I could be more accurate with the .270 than withthe .30-06 and that's why I made the switch. In the 90's a friend let me fire a few rounds at the range with his Ruger 6.5mmSwede and it sold me on it. Itook itto Canada and shot my moose with it.....
