[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2330658, member: 1951"] Why? It is a shortened 270 WSM with heavier bullets🤨🤨 Seriously, in a custom, I’d make a sample with my long bullet of choice seated just under mag length and with the base of the bearing surface aligned to the base of the neck. Confirm the oal is under mag length and tell my smith to chamber with a 270 WSM chamber that just touches the lands. Put that in an 8 twist! The biggest issue with the WSM’S is no Lapua or Peterson brass. Norma brass is all but unavailable and doesn’t get great reviews. Winchester needs pretty aggressive turning to true up. [/QUOTE]
