Ripp,

Why not use the .270 he knows and shoots well ??

Upgrade you bullet to a projectile that will retain weight while penetrating and place your bullets correctly.

Alot of shooting will be well under 200 yards....usually 100yds .......... depending what/where you're shooting.

Can't see why his "good ole .270" wouldn't work a treat.

My plains game shooting has been with a .30/06 (180gn Partitions) or a .300 Wby Mag (same partitions) and never encountered any problems that could not be attributed to poor shooting.

You don't need a new "super blaster" to shoot African plains game that's probably about the size of the game you shoot at home with your .270.
