Tired of trying to look through a scope at 20 yards too. Had my adjustment dialed out for longer range. Had to pull eyes off the target and dial my scope back. This resulted in a rushed shot that hit 4" high and 3" left. Still a kill. Unfortunately a slow kill.Sorry about your lost deer. The 30-30 will do just fine--I dropped my first buck in his tracks at about 40-yards with a 180-grain Partition handload--But I also think you can do the same just fine with a different bullet selection in your 270...
