RE: whitetail deer rifle
Go with the 270, it is a flat shooting rifle. You also don't have to worry about alot of recoil and thereare plenty of ammo choices out there.
Buy a remington. Good prices and made in the USA. Not to mention the best accuracy around. Sub-MOA

RE: whitetail deer rifle
Thanks for your help, by the way firstshot i already have the 7600 in 30-06 and im not thinking about changing due to the fact it dropped my first deer in its tracks at 120 yrd last year... i just jumbed the gun on the caliber and was wondering if i could have made a better choice....

I really like my Mountain LSS though and will never get rid of it, but I'm intrigued by the 7600 pump with the free floated barrel and the option of a quick follow-up shot. Guess I got spoiled by the BAR...LOL Anyway, there may be a 7600 in35 Whelen in my future.....or maybeone in7mm-08???
What kind of accuracy are you getting with your 7600 0ught6?

RE: whitetail deer rifle
Just a little joust to get 2 of my favorite folks on here a little tickled I am anxiously awaiting my first "swede" James. Im gonna have some serious fun with that thing. I used the 270 for a long time for deer and have absolutely zero complaints but after several shoulder grinding mt biking crashes I am into the "female" guns when it comes to recoil I moved to that 7-08 and it was perfect for what I was looking for....nearly equal ballistics and just a touch less recoil.
