Personally, I use a .270, my dad and my cousin (we hunt together) both use a 30/06. I reload for all of us. Ballistically, you can use anything from a 110 grain hollowpoint up to at least a 180 grain soft point in either. We use exclusively 110 grain hp for stuff up to white tail deer size. For bigger things, use a bigger bullet (do NOT try 110 grain hp on a cow, dont ask me how I know ;-)).
I"ve found out of a Remington 700 the 270 shoots a little flatter than the 30/06. I normally put 57 grains of H4831 in the 270 and 58 grains in the 30/06 behind the 110 grain hp. Result wise, head or neck shots at up to 120 yeards are not a problem (and our house rules call for head or neck shots only) and the deer never moves.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
