    Ive had both calibers and enjoy 7mm08 better.

    270 kicks a little more especially in a light rifle.

    If you are reloading 7mm has a better range of projectiles & uses less powder.

    As far as killing goes pretty similar in my experience.

    I didnt reload for my 270 but given the larger case capacity you could likely push a bit more velocity but dont quote me.

    7mm08 will probably be easier to on sell.

    Short action is better in a bush rifle, cut it to 20 inches put a suppressor on it only rifle you will ever need.

    +1 on the 120bts good little killers
