I know this is an old thread and, although it is a good read, I can see no real reason for a .270 Win AI. Looked into building a .270 Gibbs a few years ago and the numbers just didn't work. The gains in velocity just didn't justify the need to form brass for full power loads or the lack of factory ammo in a pinch(sometimes [bleep] just happens right?). I could see the 280 AI being a better solution for this reason alone, if you must. I'll just stick with the 270 WCF and be happy.
