.276 Pedersen and .280 British

[Hollis]

Small note, from a military perspective .308 and 30-06 was the same. Issue is not with the round, both rounds have a lot of variation to how they can be loaded, but for the military, it was basically the same. 2700 FPS, 3 grains difference in bullet weight.


Yes, 30.06/270 is basically the same C-length. M 14 was for the .308, basically a 30-06 short.

Before you argue, get out a reloading manual.

Egads man!!! what did those hippie yoga chicks do to you. Dreaming about firearms would be almost last on my list compared to scantly clad gals doing yoga.

Oh they've gotten to me all right! So much so than LD remembers what my firearm hopes and dreams are better than myself.

Umm, Springfield Armory (the Commercial firm) did Make M-1 Garands in .270 Winchester, .30-06, 7.62NATO, .243 Winchester, and early on some 7mm-08 were made.

IIRC you asked about a .270 M14/M1A which wouldnt work due to cartridge length and receiver length of the M1A/M14 (not even considering pressures and other considerations.
M1As were offered in .308/7.62NATO, .243 Winchester and 7mm-08

Yeah, I remember it now, was something about the way .270 was chambered that was the real dream killer? Still not sure I why about an M1
