Out of court, the US Government also agreed to pay a royalty to Mauser for the design of the 1903 Springfield.
I think some people misunderstood when I said that the initial .270 MV of 3,140 fps was "marketing hype like the the WSMs", as meaning the numbers are phony. No, the numbers of the .270 WCF and the WSMs were real, but obtained with high pressures. Then they are relaxed after sales took off. They did the same with the .300 Win Mag.
