Default RE: help on findin a new gun

I doubt there has ever been anyone who has "outgrown" a .270 as far as deer hunting. The only reason I don't always use a .270 is because with some of the windy conditions I hunt in I like to have a little heavier bullet to buck the wind, that is when I use my 300 RUM.

There isn't a species of deer on the planet that can't be killed with a .270. I dropped a doe that weighed around 230lbs in Kansas with a .270 at a touch over 400 yards without any wind. A 230 pound doe is larger than 90% of the deer killed in Arkansas.
