Thanks a lot guys. I am really surprised to see the number of members willing to respond to a thread with a new user. Too often on other forums this can be an issue.

Still narrowed to the 270 270wsm or the 06 the 270 and the 06 seem to make more sense however the 270 wsm is very appealing. Lending several hundred feet per second to the 270 and firing a. 277 150 grain bullet at speeds similar to the 06 but with a higher BC. Seems the wsm would lend a lite extra at long range. But then again most of my shots will be inside maximum point blank range. But seems the wsm would dispatch game with similar authority as the 300 win mag or the 7mm rem mag.

So I guess the question is 270 or 270wsm and why?
