Flogging old technology much like the internal combustion engine? At 80K psi? Hey, let's put TWO turbos on it & call it a Creedmuchmore. Now if only they could amplify a light beam thru a ruby or something, that might really shoot like a laser... oh wait... it's all mirrors & smoke. Maybe somebody in the pent-agony has a kid who just graduated from engineering school & needs to pay off xer's student loans. Besides... it's a 270. How exciting. The question was asked by our military I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site. That's a first

I have a 270 Redding 9-twist x 23" barrel on a Savage 99, achieving 3000fps wit 130g and 2900 with 140g. that's probably pushing near max pressure for my comfort zone, but I'm pretty sure that it's not producing anything like 80,000 psi. The steel-base case is an interesting concept, can't wait to hear more about the rifle. It must be belt and suspenders technology to get the 80,000 psi SAAMI approval.

I was always under the impression it wasn’t the 270 win at a round 70k It would truly be a paradigm shift if there was some advancement that increases that 10-15% It could turn a 308 into a 30-06 or a 358 win into a 35 whelen.
