Its not always the size of the Caliber but the Accuracy and shot placement in the Hunter/Shooter.I'd look at the 7mm-08,.308 and even the .270 WSM if You want power and speed in a Rifle!
+1 for the 270WSM...I absolutely love mine and loaded with 140g AccuBonds it's just plain bad medicine on anything I have hunted from whitetails to Montana Mulley's to Elk!
That being said, my brothers '06 kicks worse than my 300WM...same rifle, both pre-64 Model 70's...
