I am going to replace the barrel on my Winchester model 70 in .270 to a better caliber for a long range hunting rifle. My first impulse was to go to 30-06 but after reading posts on the hide I am starting to think I should get a 6.5 or 7 mm sized caliber. I will be using the rifle as follows:
75% of the time: target shooting between 100-300 yards
25% of the time: hunting nothing larger than deer and maybe elk
Accuracy is very important to me followed then by muzzle energy and BC.
Thoughts?
