308 is a short action, 270 is a medium length action. Makes no difference on a Tikka but other rifles it will. That aside, pick the one you like the sound of the most and go forth.

be ready - deer will not give you time generally to load - I cringe the way hunters on these TV shows carry on when shooting - one wonders how many simply get away because they stuff around so much...

Yesterday while at the range I tried a wee experiment with my Kimber 84M 308, it's a pretty reliable 1.0 MOA or a tad better rifle WHEN it's treated with consistency in hold. Target is 3 different...

308 has less recoil and relatively cheap ammunition.

.270 its a beast!if I had one rifle id take the .270 for the allrounder.at the end of the day the .308 will do it all pretty much but the .270 just has the extra hp.

in the real world both are damn good calibers -- the 308 would win points for being able to be produced in a shorter action than the .270- the 270 would win with an increase in its knock down...

7mm SWC. Not because I think it's the best but because I find it interesting and want someone else to be the guinea pig.

This was perplexing. 150 yards, 6.45pm day/night scope in day mode. It was croaking and mucking about sniffing the ground. Good high-ish shoulder hit that angled out midway off side. I expected it to...

outdoorlad I would be happy with that. I use all sorts of brass for my .223's. I use straight lines of GFL brass or something good for sighting in and then what ever is on hand for the hunting. ADI,...

Just got a 223 t3x to be a goat banger and not worry about saving brass, unlike the T3 7mm-08 (in an identical aspire stock), well: The T3x trigger is vastly inferior to the T3 one. With the same...
