Nothing wrong with .270 Greg, I have two of them and they have both dropped a lot of deer. Also have a .243 for the fallow up the back. Oh and VC, I do have a real rifle in 30 06.
It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
Rule 5: Check your firing zone
Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

I have a cuz who owns a .270 & he head shoots deer regularly at 200m with it & has been for 30 odd years.
He tells me its a piece of shit but the large jars of eye teeth hes collected with would suggest it works fine.
He now reckons his 8 mil is the only caliber worth owning .Gun control means using both hands

Im a big 243 fan, but I share your dislike for the 270.
I had one and just needed to sell it.
nothing wrong with a 270 I just dont like them. but if the price is good ill still buy them for action value alone

I'm just surprised you managed to find one
being so useless and all. I'm sure waaaaaay more deer have fallen to a .308 over the last 80 years
