Given that it seems you want an all around gun for varmints, pigs and deer I would go with the 270 Win. Speer makes a 90 grain .277 dia bullet if you want to shoot a fast bullet. If you really want a fast gun for varmints then I would step down to something like 22-250 or 22PPC. But if your looking for a great all around rifle the 270 Win is tuff to beat.
