at our hunting camp,there's 4 out of 10 hunters who have regularly dropped moose on hydro cuts and across swamps out to 250 yds using
.270win (150gr. Psp) in various makes of rifle. Don't let anyone tell you .270 win won't get the job done.
you’d probably do better in the hunting rifle forum, rather than the shotgun forum.
bullet choice and shot placement are important. With the right setup you should be fine for everything up to moose at reasonable distances.
moose and elk yes. Cape buffalo no.
A .270 rates far more highly as a Grizzly hunting gun than a .450 Marlin or hot .45-70, to put it plainly. It’s a fantastic cartridge.
