Ok...I realize there is a considerable knock down differance...no argument there. BUT....here is the BUT...I own the .270 setup now (Encore) typically I dont hunt Elk (first time)...I hunt Deer and Coyote (live in the midwest). A .300 is a little overkill for those 2...I know there are 2 different thoughts on this like asking what brand of golf driver...but in all reality would my .270 with a 150 or 160 grain get it done or am I asking for trouble?

I did offer up my .270 barrel for a trade or sale....because I have a feeling I know the anwser already...but Im looking for some REAL WORLD not theory on the subject.

Thanks Scott
