RE: Your favorite deer rifle that is NOT a 270
I'd go with a 375 Remington Ultra Mag...........just kidding! Have you ever shot a 270 Winchester (I assume your talking about the 270 Win.) I have a 280 Rem. The 270 Win. and the 280 Rem. are as close to one another as any two cartridges we have. I don't think the 280 Rem. kick bad at all. If you haven't shot one I would. If you have shot one and can't handle the recoil I don't think you'll like a something like a 7mm-08 Rem. or a 308 Win either. The 270 Win. does kick more then these two, but its not that much more!
