Both really great calibers. The .270 uses the same case as the 30-06, and the 30-06 is just a longer cased .308. You will get higher velocities out of the .270 because of the bigger case, that being said, the 308 won't be lacking anything for hunting, unless you really want to get into long range hunting like 500+ yards. You can't go wrong with either. The .308 is lower recoil. But not by much. Whatever you decide, send me a message when you get it and I'd be happy to do some reloads up for you so you can take full advantage of the accuracy these guns are capable of if you aren't happy with a factory round. I personally hunt with the .270.
