read this thread and thought I should take the time to add my support for your reasoning............
first rifle I ever bought was a .270 savage, back in 1964. over the years I've owned about every calibre there is at one time or other, but in recent years the novelty has worn off and I get little satisfaction from looking at 25 guns in my cabinet (sure used to though!)
anyway, I sold a bunch and gave the left overs to my son (including that original .270 savage).
today there's lots of room in my cabinet and the only big game gun in there is a new t3 in .270............I don't see anything walking that I can't knock down with the .270. last fall took a bull elk @ 400 yds and he couldn't tell whether he was shot with a .270 or something else!
this new attitude may not be right for everyone, but I can identify with it and think the odd six is a fine choice for you and your one gun decision.
