So its whole different cartridge with fast twist, longer barrel and longer throat. So why not give this old cartridge a catchy name for it. We have the .270AI so I think we need something to separate it from the standard cartridge. I am calling my new one .270 Heavy, got .270 Fatboy as suggestion. I am pretty sure the name was for the cartridge, I hope.

What do you think? PLEASE! No CM!

Leaning toward .270 TH = Thor's Hammer based upon the velocities I posted up this morning! Stopped at 3284 with 156HH and RL26 so it will be no doubt be one at those velocities!
