[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 30222, member: 1007"] I know a "smith" that has a reamer for a 7 STW improved. It has a longer neck and blown out shoulders. It is 150-200 FPS faster than the standard STW. Add some legth to the barrel and it would scream. The only real way to get the 270 bullet any faster than the 7mm fired of the same case is to lengthen the barrel. It would take a 27" barrel in the 270 to equal the 7mm at 26". Also have you looked into the 7mm RUM? a 28.5" barrel will afford you about 3700 with an 140 BT. W/a 400 yard zero you will be 5.8" high at its highest point and 8.9" low at 500 yards. It doesent get much better than that. [/QUOTE]
