I'm making a move into a little bit longer range category. Will still be hunting white tails and higs for the most part maybe some cayotes or other big varmints, and hears a lot of good news about the the new Ruger American line of rifle. I shot a buddies 308, and it's a very accurate tack driver out of the box, but reading some reviews on the cartridge itself im getting mixed emotio s about it. I've been reading that .270 shoots faster, further, straighter, and harder than the 308. Dont get me wrong i have no buisness shooting at thi gs over 300 yards yet but i still want a rifle that does what it should do with in its perameters. I guess when it comes to a medium long range rifle used to hunt a i animals like deer or hogs or something thick skinned lime a hog i should say, whats my better choice, 308 or 270? Im almost certain i domt want a 30-06. Make my mind up for me pls!!!
