Personally, I use a .270, my dad and my cousin (we hunt together) both use a 30/06. I reload for all of us. Ballistically, you can use anything from a 110 grain hollowpoint up to at least a 180 grain soft point in either. We use exclusively 110 grain hp for stuff up to white tail deer size. For bigger things, use a bigger bullet (do NOT try 110 grain hp on a cow, dont ask me how I know ;-)).
I"ve found out of a Remington 700 the 270 shoots a little flatter than the 30/06. I normally put 57 grains of H4831 in the 270 and 58 grains in the 30/06 behind the 110 grain hp. Result wise, head or neck shots at up to 120 yeards are not a problem (and our house rules call for head or neck shots only) and the deer never moves.
