Have both of those & like yall say either would work & the .270 works fine for elk etc also.(i wouldnt be popin them at 500 yrs whatever i use, including them calibers & hoping theres enough energy left)

Not exotic calibers & been around awhile , ammo is easy to find & cheaper.


I do like fat some to 45/70 etc( id use that in africa etc i think) poor mans big bore.

Like everyone else before me said. Either one will suffice

surfice is to say .. it works? as oranges are to oranges. they are close.


They shot fish in Vt i heard?

an use bait to catch

I have both, but used a .270 extensively for three years in Alaska with 150-grain Nosler Partition bullets. Although I made a point of carrying a .375 H&H when actively hunting Brown/Grizzly Bears, for some reason, I always seemed to be carrying the .270 when I came across the larger animals. The .270 worked every time for me, with the max number of shots ever needed = 2!! The largest animal I ever saw killed with a .270 was a relatively large Polar Bear (this in the days before the Endangered Species Act) that was taken by a doctor' s wife from Fairbanks!! But then, Eleanor O' Connor killed her elephant with a .30/' 06!! " Any gun good, shoot ' um good!!"
