Ya know my Uncle Lou had the 740 carbine in 3006. Short and sweet.

Never had, nor fired the.270. Have a fancy, professionally done 7mm sporter K98 Mauser. Picked it up moderately cheap from a friend who worked in a gunstore. Too pretty to hunt with but no safe queen. I shoot it often at paper My range only goes out to 200 yds, and she hits into a tight circle at that range.

But my .35 Remington, Marlin 336 is as accurate(with my hand loads) and quicker to shoulder and to get off a second round on target. That’s my NE rifle of choice
