I have a henry .22, a remington 7400 in .270, a savage in .243, and a 12gauge with an IC barrel and iron sights. My question is which of these should I bring hunting next weekend? Im not looking to keep the pelts. I have taken ole wiley with all exept the 270, so what do yall think?

Im on the fence between the 243 and 270 but I want some better opinions than my own. I tried tanning the pelts and failed really badly... My shots are usually 30-75ish yards, seeing as I hunt the thick, hilly WNC woods. But man, I need bullet/rifle combo ideas, anyone got one in mind?
