Load 110-130 gr bullets with reduced charges of 4064, or, today RL15.I used 4064 because that was the old JOC recipe.

His working max load was 49.5 but you can safely go lower with 4064,say 45-46 gr and velocities will be in the 2700-2800 fps range with 130's.

Muzzle blast and felt recoil will be reduced and the round will behave more like a 7x57 instead of a 30/06.

In general yes the 270 recoils less than the 30/06.

The 280 Remington is overbore.

The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
