Well, there IS that I guess, looking back through some of it.

Myself, I'll gladly shoot my Remington rifles chambered in 243 Winchester or 308 Winchester (which bracket the 270 caliber quite nicely), 264 Win Mag, 300 Win Mag, or any of the others likewise named, and be quite content with both names involved. It also doesn't bother me a bit to run Remington ammo through my old Win Model 12 either. I guess I'm an equal opportunity employer between the two. whistle

I wonder if Remington took off on the idea, and actually produced a 270-08, if he would still be so enamored of the wonder-round? laugh
