If you're referring to the difference between the .280 Rem and the .270 Win.....I think the real difference is the typical twist rate.....the .284 tubes are commonly twisted 1-9" and the .270 tubes are typically twisted 1-10".....and the faster twist allows for a 175 spitzer bullet to be used in the .280....something that just might make a small difference when the presentation is other than the broadside shot normally offered.

Most interesting was the number of cows I had to pick from when I shot mine.....there was (possibly) fifty of them to pick from and finding one offering the classic broadside shot took less than a second....not necessarily a luxury to be had hunting bulls.
