    Chamber designations on tubes really aren't that hard

    So how much difference would there be in case capacity between this and the .270wsm, close?
    I know of one rifle up here, (flew back to Canada on Sunday) and I the guy really likes it but is a bit vauge on why he did an AI on his .270.

    Why not ai the 270 ?

    It certainly perks up the 280 & 30-06.

    I will soon have a reamer for the 6.5-06, might not gain much but who knows ?
    Contact me for reloading components, brass, projectiles, powder, primers, etc

    In the real world you are not going to see any worthwhile benefit over a standard 270 are you?

    Yeah but is it fast enough to make any noticeable difference - I am guessing not really
