[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 2089352, member: 11960"] The only reason I can’t give solid data is because I don’t have the actual guns in my hands. There is a point when a case is so overbore that the extra capacity exceeds the capabilities of current powders. That’s not the case here with the 6.8 Western and the 270 Win. I’ve yet to see a single scenario where a smaller capacity case exceeds the performance of a larger capacity case when both are tested under the same conditions. Until somebody tests both cases in the same barrel configurations, with the same bullets, and optimized loads at the same pressures, we can only speculate what the performance difference will be. Interesting enough though, that process is exactly what powder manufacturers and SAAMI do. [/QUOTE]
