    @@darrylcook2845 I typically keep my shots within 150 yards with my 243. However with my 270 I try and stay within 300 yards. But with that said, almost everything I have taken with my 243 drops instantly with a shot placed right behind the shoulder. My 270 has dropped a lot of animals with the same shot placement as well, but even at closer ranges, I have noticed that more of them tend to run a little. My 243 is a pre 64 Winchester model 70, so I don't really take it out much anymore. I have been seriously considering buying a new rifle chambered in 243. Probably a Savage. That way I don't have to worry about damaging my model 70. It was my first deer rifle, and was given to me for my 7th birthday by someone who has since passed away.

    .243 was the first true rifle I ever fired and then owned. I own more rifles today, but the .243 will always be my go-to rifle when hunting. Unless you are hunting Grizzly, you don't need much more than this to humanely put down your game. But for the larger bore hunters, Nothing wrong with the .270 or larger. Just harder to train the youth when they start flinching. Stick with what you know, don't tell anyone one is better than the other. The only thing that matters at the end of the day is a well-placed shot will Always bring home the game.

    The .270 150 grain is the largest bullet for that caliber. A more fair comparison would be a 100 grain bullet from the .243. I believe the 80 grain bullet is more of a varmint round designed to explode on impact. The 150 grain from the .270 is a big game hunting round designed to retain mass and expand with a large wound channel. I have both calibers and either one is perfect medicine for the whitetail deer that I hunt.

    Love my .243! It has low recoil, turns whitetail lungs to jelly, and ammo is available everywhere (if you forget yours). I lend mine out to youth hunters (with adult supervision) in Michigan's youth hunt. As a friend said when I got the .243. "That's a womans gun, I wish I had one". I've never seen a deer go 20 yards with a lung shot.

    @@DinoNucci Which 6.5? The Creedmoor has 62kpsi vs 55kpsi of the Swede. The 6.5 PRC is a magnum, and shoots very nice. The trend of the new cartridges is for hunting in areas with human encroachment on animal habitats. Think the 350 Legend and the 450 Bushmaster. Or a faster twist and longer bullets to get better physics out of a cartridge. And are typically short and fat. While I do have a semi-auto .308. Most of my rifles are bolt action. I don't shoot my old military surplus rifles any more (no ammo). But mini-action, short-action, and long action are the same to me. As for carrying a distance, the strap matters to me. I like my bullpup rifle and shotgun for going through the brush. But getting back to the ammo. While the suppliers may have their preferences. But ammo will go through supply chain strategies from the MBA crowd. That will have just a few cartridges at a volume price. And everything else will become a boutique cartridge. With really bad prices and availability. And the hoarding will drive profitability for the MBA crowd. So we need to take our time between shots. And not waste ammo.

    I find it humorous that anyone would ask for this particular matchup! That being said, the grain difference is substantial. Most .270 barrels use a 1:10 twist-rate, which limits bullets weighing more than 150-grains. Accuracy is significantly reduced with higher grain numbers, as is muzzle velocity. There are cartridges in 90 to 100 grains with mid 3k mv, not to mention that the twist rate would have stabilized better/quicker and would have dug a little deeper into the plates, for the 270, closely matching the 243 90 you were using for this trial, but regardless, the 270 would win, without trouble. I have studied the calibers when looking for my go-to rifle. While I shot a 270 a few times, I never purchased one. 30-30, 308, 30-06..... These are my favorites for big game animals. I have a Rosi JR for when my son was little and an old Western Auto (Savage A-Bolt), both in 243 for turkey and small game. (One of my PB was a 480 yard kill shot on a coyote, iron sights with the Western!) Still, I enjoy your videos immensely! Show me a 338 v 300! LOL!

    I use both calibers. Love them both. The only reason I use the 270 more is because it’s a Weatherby Vanguard and is a little more accurate than my 243 Remington 770 at longer distance. But both always get the deer, coyotes or what I’m after.

    Adam try this one time. What I've done to test penetration and expansion is to take an old cooler (either an old igloo or a Styrofoam) about a 36 quart size. I pack it as tight as I can with news paper, then fill it with water. Let it sit overnight. Then put it at 100 yards and hit it. When you check it you can actually see the energy transfer and increasing expansion through it. Put something behind just in case the boolot makes it through. I've used this method to test my 180 gr. Barnes TSX's that I load for Elk.

    I’d really like to see the 270 Win, 130 gr round for deer go up against the 243 Win , 100 gr round for deer. I don’t doubt that the 270 would still win but, besides being a more equal representation of each round, I believe that the bullet construction would be much more comparable. Varmint rounds aren’t built like rounds for bigger game. Many moons ago I had a 243 and my wife had a 270. My eldest child had a 30-06. There weren’t many critters in New Mexico that would need other rounds. A 243 is legal for elk here but you better put the right bullet in the right spot within the right range if you want to kill one. Heck, my dad killed his elk in 110-120 yards with a lever action Marlin 336 in 35 Remington. It’s all about hunting, not sniping!

    Out of those two I would choose the 270. But when I use to hunt and growing up my preferred rifle of choice was a marlin 30-30 lever action. I have taken whitetails all over Texas from 50 vrds all the way out to 300 yards with no problems and most were head shots. You can't eat them racks so I try and save as much meat as I possibly could by making head shots. I hunted for food not trophies.

    Another great video that displays the difficulty of calculating penetration. A more appropriate comparison Adam would be the American Standard .270 vs the Government Sig Standard.277 shot at 100 yards ie. 91.4 meters. Approximate conversion: Meter = 1.1 yards. Both bullets should be non-expanding FMJ (SD = (bullet weight in grains/7000) / bullet diameter^2) for this test because in hunting bullets we would need the terminal diameter of extracted bullets in a two-part test. TSD = (recovered-bullet weight in grains/7000) / recovered-bullet diameter^2) Who-Dee-Who knew hunting would rely on physics and mathematics (lol) Sorry Adam, I was a Science Major back in the '70s whose professors at the Cow College were WW2-German Scientists, for what it is worth I'll be going with the AR15 6.5 Grendel unless BCA puts the AR10 in .308 or 6.5 on sale like it was last March...

    Because I’m a 45/70 type of person I prefer the 270 over the 243 but from your test I still I still prefer the 270 because it didn’t disintegrate like the 243 did. So there’s hopefully less waste of the animal when you’re cutting out the bullet damage.

    That's what I have been wondering : how do you handle either the lead dust or like some rounds unburnt gun powder ? Maybe washing the cavity or just cutting around wound cavity ? Although some wound cavities are huge due to bullets breaking apart . Although I do see in videos the FMJ'D and bonded bullets do hold together the best .

    @@Airon79 if your using proper hunting bullets on game you won't have an issue with lead dust in the meat. Hunting bullets are built to retain weight and expand evenly. Varmint bullets on the other hand are designed to come apart to have maximum shock in predators and/or Varmints. The 80 grain bullet he used with the 243 was a Varmint bullet. Deer hunting with a 243, I personally wouldn't use anything under 100 grains.

    I've never walked more than 30 yards for a kill with my .243. I have however walked quite a bit aways after a 30-06 shot but still recovered my buck. While the energy from muzzle is higher in the 30-06, I just prefer a lighter faster bullet hitting that spot that's just right. For example-Winchester Ballistic silvertips in 30-06 come in at 150 grain compared to the same brand of ammo in .243 @ 55 grai. This particular 30-06 load travels @ 2900fps compared to the same ammo in .243 @ 3900fps. The muzzle energy for the .243 in this load is only 172 ft lbs less. Not bad for a much smaller bullet and ammo all around.
