    Probably said this before but there was a wonderful article by Geoff Roache in the NZ Guns extolling the virtue of the 270. He was doing a lot of shooting around Ruatahuna on big red stags across big gullies. With a 130gr pill it flattens deer. Think Tinsley used a 270 on wapiti . Greame Sinclair used a 270 and also a 25/06 when he hunted with Tinsley.
