I’m a 270W guy
I shot a 25-06 for many years, till the barrel got shot out. At the time the next gun in my cabinet was a 270W. Last weekend I was with a friend on an elk cow hunt near Grande Prairie and he shot a cow broadside front 410 yds (ranged, 270W as well, 130gr SST), and it took out both front shoulders, broke the bone both sides that’s under the blade. Which caused the unfortunate loss of both front shoulders cuz the cow thrashed for too long causing massive hemorrhaging in there.
How much more power does one really need?
