The 7mm is certainly a respectable caliber, so is the .270. I'd take a .280 over either one for general hunting use, but given this pairing I'd probably lean more toward the .270.

Silly RR, don't you know that 6mms are for kids? (j/k). .243 is the bang-flop king in my battery, too.

i have a .270 and my dad has a 7mm. The only difference i can tell is i think the 7mm has more recoil, just a tad. they both shoot accurately and get the job done. All we hunt is deer with them so it doesnt make a difference.
