.300 Win mag, 7mm Rem mag, nor any of the others suggested above are bullets. Those are all calibers... I'd say a Trophy Bonded Bear Claw, or a Nosler Partition in any caliber bigger than a .22 would normally result in an exit wound.

Guess I should have asked ya'll to exolain why you suggested what you did. pros and cons. And I don't need a huge cannon my dad already has a 338 ultra mag I can use whenever I want I just hate sighting that thing in!

.308. Hands down. It will take down anything you shoot in the right spot, and do it well. You can find a .308 rifle dirt cheap, you can buy ammo almost anywhere. And it doesn't kick you like a mule.

30-06. Great bullet and ammo selection for dang near everything in north America. Not to mention you could walk into any small town ma & pa store will have some ammo for it in stock. It's kinda one of those if it ain't broke kinda deals. Been putting meat on the ground since 1906.

Why a 270? Forgive my ignorance never really got into the technical aspects of calibers

7mm mag best shooting gun I have ever owned puts a smack down on the critters
