[QUOTE="coxhaus, post: 481728, member: 13469"] [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]I am not a fan of the 308 for white tail deer. I have had to chase to many deer shot with my 308. The deer were all dead but I had to find them. One night we had to hunt one in the brush after dark with flashlights. We found it but I started using a 270 and I have never had to chase a single deer. I now only shoot competition with my 308. Years ago I had a 7mm mag and it was too much gun for little white tail deer in south Texas. The 7 mag would just shoot through the deer and the deer would run. This was forty years ago before ballistic tip bullets. I have not hunted with a 7 mag since then. If you have a 270 now, you may not be able to do better.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
