Looking for light load for .270
Hi all my daughter is entering her 2nd season of gun hunting for deer season. Instead if purchasing a .243 I was hoping you guys could help me out and provide a good lighter load for .270 that would still be effective for medium size deer in West Virginia. Thanks in advance and God Bless
