    Greetings @ chainsaw,
    No criticism just my clumsy phrasing. The 7x64 is loaded to a higher pressure than the .280 Rem and the faster twist allows heavier projectiles. I see that the .270 is now being given a faster 1 in 8" twist by some manufacturers which, once decent high BC projectiles become more available, will enhance its long range performance. Nothing stays the same forever it seems.
    Regards Grandpamac.
    chainsaw and Micky Duck like this.
