[QUOTE="The Hock, post: 1897403, member: 8986"] My 27 Nosler is forming up. I have a 1-8 Brux on the way. I've read some comments pointed toward the throat of the chamber being too short. The dummy rounds had 165 Matrix bullets seated at the shoulder/neck junction. PTG will grind the reamer to that. When you have a rifle barreled it is up to you what the chambe rlooks like. The loaded round still fits in a standard magazine box even though I have a Wyatt's. I have said before; I have what some would call an illogical preference for the .277" bore. I call it the REAL 7mm. The Winchester did everything I ever asked it to including shooting WAY further than most thought was right and correct. It also killed with authority. My WSM whacked a bit harder and was a buncha fun. The 27 Nosler is nearly identical in capacity to the 270-6.8x68 Imp (270 Booboo) I once lusted after in a cartridge with pressure tested data and factory brass. For me it is a dream come true, literally. Reading through this thread I have seen some of the same negative comments I read over the years about cartridges like the 220 Swift. short barrel life, yadda, yadda, yadda... Nobody I know of thinks of the 27 Nosler is a high round count cartridge. Even at 400(?!) rounds it will be a lifetime of shooting if used as a hunting rifle. [/QUOTE]
