Okay I'll admit I'm not that into long guns (though I'm obviously not against them.) Also there really is no bad round as there's a good use case for most of them. Most of my family who hunts likes 30 06 though so I'm going with that.
Boooo!...the 270 has been demonstratively and conclusively shown to cut through wind resistance at ridge to ridge range and deliver a more accurate shot and cleaner kill than the 30 06. O6 lovers are just wedded to their affinity for antique firearms and the subsequent torture any animal they accidentally manage to hit might cause.
I'm just fucking with you bro. Obviously, the 06 hits like a truck so if I wanted to kill an animal point blank execution style I'd pick that. The 270 is a scalpel. Im with you on the nukes though. If uncle sam can have a nuke, where the fuck is mine...? In case I need it to stop uncle sam from tyrannies and suchlike. Can't say I agree on rape. If more women were armed exactly as many rapes would occur, just more gun deaths.
