[QUOTE="therifleman556, post: 1573429, member: 101898"] Since you brought that up... I've got a theory and I'll let you decide if there's merit to it. The 7mm cartridges you've listed with the exception of the saum have a very good selection of off the shelf rifles that will handle some pretty slippery bullets. Aside from someone who just wants a premium barrel, what incentive does a person have to rebarrel one? On the other hand, it's well known the 270 is handicapped by it's factory twist. But, people are seeing what it can do with the right twist. I think then, that if someone wants to take full advantage of the 270 rounds they will likely find a donor to build off of. The 7mm mag is just so abundant in factory form it's easy to pick one up and pitch the barrel to build what a person is really after. [/QUOTE]
