There aren't enough gun threads IMO so please help me decide my next one...

Looking at the 300blk or 6.8

Which route to go for hog hunting

I had a 6.8. Ammo is too expensive.

300 blk or .308.

.270/ best all around caliber out there in my opinion- you can kill anything from a deer to an elk with this bullet.

Really shouldn't use a .270 for elk. Just not enough behind it.

Here's where I toss in my obligatory pimping for the 25.06. Love mine. Great round.

On just the few sites I looked at the 6.8 and .300 blk are basically the same price.

270, 308, and 30-06 are the perfect hog guns in my opinion. Take your pick.

Probably killed more hogs than any other 2 calibers combined.
