Since you didn't mention the 7mm-08 Rem I will go with a 270 Win. Seeing as how I will never get the chance to hunt anything but deer, either of those cartridges are perfect for my needs.

If I had to, my .308win would proably be my choice. I hunt whitetail with it and it does an outstanding job! Good thing I don't have to make that choice though Especially with my Encore, any caliber a barrel change away
