Choice Rifle??

[fish_or_die]

a 270 is a more than capable elk gun, though it certainly is on the small side of the range. It'll chuck a 180gr slug down range accurately as far as most people are likely to have to shoot. 400 yard shots are easily possible if you practice and you won't break your shoulder doing it. If you plan on shooting over 500 yards, which most people can't do accurately, then the 300 mag type rounds would be a good choice, but if you're like most of us and harvest big game well under 500 yards anything between the .270 and 30-6 is absolutely effective, cheaper to shoot and less punishing than the mag rounds
