.270 Winchester.
I was thinking of common cartridges I haven't fired. .270 Win just jumps out at me, somehow I've never busted that cap... though I have shot a .270 WSM.
I have also never fired a .243. The .243 interests me a bunch more than .270.
Any common cartridge that you, dear reader, have not fired?

EVERYBODY is pro-gun, some just don't know it. When an anti-gun person is in trouble, the first thing they do is call 911 and demand that they send somebody with a gun!

Never fired a 270win either.
also never fired a 22 magnum or any centerfire in a pump action rifle .
Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I've fired other folks .270's with a clothes pin on my nose.
Still made me ill.
Its best left to the Jack O'Connor worshipers and Bubba Gumps who enjoy mud racing.

7mm Rem Mag is probably the most common rifle cartridge I have not fired.

I've never fired a 7mm, yuropean anything. Why? No need to since my .270 Win. does virtually everything I ask of it. All 7mm's. are just just redundant.

.280, .264, .300SM, and the Weatherbys are about all the semi-common ones I can think of. Owned or shot almost all the deer & elk-sized American calibers.

No WSM's or RSAUM's of any caliber
No RUM's of any caliber

No 416 Weatherby,358 Norma,338/06,257 Weatherby,204,.17Rem,404 Jeffreys or 9.3x62....Oh, and 6.5x55 or 260...I'm sure there are others. I've fired other folks .270's with a clothes pin on my nose.
Still made me ill.

The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

Does anybody have the 2011 RCBS top selling dies list? I'd like to know what the currently most poplar round is that I've not fired.
Just curious...
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

I've owned and fired a .270, but I'm pretty sure that I've never fired a 30-06 or a 7mm Rem. Mag.

.270 Winchester.
...
Any common cartridge that you, dear reader, have not fired?
How common is "common"? Too many to list depending. Not even sure what the list contains as I've shot quite a few rifles belonging to other people over the years. Don't own a .243 or .270 Win, though and suspect they are on the list. 7mm-08 is likely on the list. Anything in x55, x57 or H&H is probably on the list, too. Anything in TC, PPC, WSM, WSSM, SAUM, Dakota, WBY, RUM or Lapua is very likely. Anything ending in "Savage" or "-3000" is a given. Never shot a "Hornet" or "Bee" or "Fireball". Never shot anything between .375" and .44" that I can recall. And many others...

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.
A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.
