270 ?
I just this season started hunting with a 270. I'm using the 130 gr corelokts. What has surprised me tho is that this load did'nt penetrate clear thru. I'm used to the 30/06. I've killed two good size bucks. I shot both broad side shoulder, one at 80 yds and the other at just less than a hundred. Both dear dropped on the spot. Neither had clear thru penetration.I was really surprised tho that the damage to the shoulders was minimal on both deer, compared to the 06 which generally devastaded the shoulders. I really did'nt think there would be that much difference in the 270 and the o6. I know that many don't approve of the shoulder shot, . . .sorry if that offends . . .it's what has worked best for me.
