Not saying it wont kill deer. I killer deer with it. Hell ive killed tons of deer with a 100gr 243 also. Doesnt mean it better than a 270..But if you are asking me which to get for deer hunting (like the op did) its 308 and it isnt close.

Except they are both really, really close to eat other in every measurable there is.
I hate on the creedmoor as much as anybody, but I've been killing deer with a 6.5x55 my whole life. I've never had a bullet fail to exit, never had any kind of mystery performance issues, just lots of dead deer. A 140gr 6.5 soft point is a really really good deer whacker. The only thing I can figure is people are shooting target bullets or taking bad shots.
