[QUOTE="baldhunter, post: 654778, member: 11853"] A 270 Win will shoot in a magnum.I had a guy in the bench next to me one day shoot a 270 Win in a 300 Win Mag.I didn't go off the first or the second time but the third time was a charm.The rifle was OK,the shooter survived,just a few tiny bleeding cuts on his face from the shrapnel that blew out of the rifle.He was blaming it on the Remington ammo.The case was stuck in the chamber and I had a cleaning rod with me,so I got the distorted blown to hell case out for him.I asked him what caliber the rifle was and his reply was"300 Win Mag".You should have seen the sheepish look on his face when I told him it was a 270 Win. case.He and his daughter were shooting four rifles and they had all their ammo scattered in one big pile,he picked up the wrong one.He was lucky,hell,me and his daughter were lucky too!!!Another case of the shooter on the bench next to me,guy was wondering why the necks of his cases were blowing off when he shot and also where they were going after they did!!!After three or four rounds of this happening,he looked at the headstamp on one of them,he found he was accidentally shooting his 7mag ammo out of his 300 Win. Mag!!!Guess it's a good thing it was a smaller caliber shooting out of a larger caliber and not the other way around!!!We both may of had some injuries.It pays to be safe! [/QUOTE]
