" ALMOST identical"
Just tryin to sort the FACTS !!!

I doubt he found more than one or two 160gr bullets for the .270 during his search.

I'm not going to waste time counting how many are available in 7mm.

There might be more .277 bullets available, but they are not concentrated at the heavy end of the scale like 7mm bullets are.

Whether or not that is necessary is another matter. But there is no doubt the .280 owns the game when it comes to S.D.
