I remember reading an article by a guy who was a government shooter who kept elk herds in check. His go-to caliber was the 270. Just my .02.

My 270 always does job 7mm magnum way to much gun for deer and recoil. I have friend used one on moose didn’t do the job. I have another friend lost deer to 25-06 so it happens. I like the 270 my 243 and the 7-08 all have done the job no need for anything else on mullies or white tails or pigs and coyotes.

I don't and never did like the 270 but I really like the 7mmRM so no question in my mind. The 7mmRM is a step up and handles bigger critters better at the cost of more recoil. Nothing's free.
