what caliber do you recommend between a 30-06 and a 270?

shite in one hand, wish in the other and see which one fills up first.
(I think that's how the saying goes...)

I have a 270wsm and rarely take it unless im hunting powerlines.
Yeah, only reason I bought it is due to the hundreds of new pipelines in NWLA. Other than that, there's no reason for it.
Back to the OP, i think 30-06 is the most widely used hunting catridge of North America. There's a reason why.

Split the difference if you must go long action.

.30-06 and you'll be good for anything and any location in North America

i've been told the 270 is the most versatile rifle to own.
i own a ruger 30-06 though.

Either one and don't look back.

I am partial to the .270 but if you plan on hunting more than deer. Then the 30-06 offers more selection in bullet weight. Hard to beat the trajectory of the .270 loaded with 130 gr bullets.

I couldn't decide either if I had that many.
I have a 270 and a 44, so deciding is easy.
