Definitly the .270 Win. I had a 30-06 myself and was rather bored with it. Traded it in on a .270 and am very happy. Perfect gun to fill your gap so to speak. Would be perfect in the grains you mentioned and would kill just about any game you could think of in north america. Including moose. but in my opinion a great whitail, antilope, sheep etc... gun. You can' t go wrong with the .270 a gun that everyone should have in their collection. I sure love it in mine!

mainehunt, I tend to like the standard cartrides .30-06 SPNG, .270 Win, ect. but I get the impression you want something that your hunting buddies haven' t shot yet. In this case I think one of the short magnums like the .270 wsm.

Im in agreement,why not go with something odd. 280 jeffery,284,264,or 275 nitro express. They are all fun to reload, and some you will have to fire form. What a great way to learn more about relaoding.

If you are truely looking for a great filler gun, I say the 270win. If you want a filler gun, but also wanna be the first kid on the block.. get the 270WSM. Either should do great for ya.
