Is there a huge difference between a 270 & 300win mag?
Most of what is in my safe is .223,.243,&.308. I have two encore barrels and unless someone says so I figure they are to close to keep them both. Originally I got the 300 to have a barrel for Elk in the next year or two I'm hoping to go. The 270 I got on trade.
Mostly I just shoot deer around here in GA. So I was thinking of just sticking with a 150 grain bullet in the 300 and be happy. I'd think the lighter bullet in the 300 should be dang near as flat as the 270. Then just load up something heavier for Elk when I get to go?
Am I just off my rocker or missing anything in my thinking?
