First centre fire I brought was .270. It shot everything. It was not uncommon to blaze away 70/80 rounds in a arvo. 130gr worked a treat great on goats. Shoulder was bit sore for coupley days after,...

It really comes down to how many you want to shoot. One, two or three a .270 would be fine, maybe more even. For a good old fashion bomb up I prefer my .223; easier on the body, ears and pockets. ...

Those are all good options and better suited to goats imo.
