Who here favors a 270 over a 30.06 for white tail in the Northeast? Talking average 70 yard shot. No more than 100 yards.
Now that's funny!There need not be anything else.
However, if you can't shoot further than 100 yards because of trees, then the .30-06 may be a better choice due to lower velocity, which in turn reduces (but doesn't eliminate) ricochet.
So, being pretty new to the whole rifle thing, caliber choice is kind of like religion, politics, and engine oil?
