Has anyone ever seen a cartridge with a SPRG 30-06 headstamp, but when you actually mic. the neck, it has an inner diameter of .270.
I've just never heard of this round before, and was interested if anyone knew what it was actually called.

can't post pictures, but the following are the measurments I took...

Neck at mouth. OD .303
ID .271
Neck at shoulder OD .303
ID .273
Body at shoulder OD .438
Body at base OD .46
Over all length 2.500

I'm doing the research, but if you have a guess, give it a shot.

Is it a 270? The 270 is a necked down 30-06.

Wow... now I feel like a dumbass. holy crap.

So, obviously, I had no idea about that. Thanks for solving the "Great Case of the .270 Wildcat-thingy"
