[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2165288, member: 115658"] The .270 Win brass measures 2.540 " long, .30-06 is 2.494 ", & trim is 2.484 ". I would suggest necking up the ..270 to .30 caliber, I use a Hornady elliptical expander ball to do this and lubricate the neck insides with 3 in 1 graphite lock lube. After that, F/L size in a .30-06 die then trim to 2.484. After all that stretching annealing might be considered. I have a 6.5-06, 6mm-06, 280 and do this type of thing routinely using .270, 30-06, & .25-06 brass. Should you be fussy neck turning might be considered. Crunching .270 length brass into a .30-06 chamber would make for bad problems. [/QUOTE]
