Re: Are the 25.06 and .270 compatible

iqbal, no the two cartridges are not compatible.
They are similar in case dimentions and that's why it was possible to chamber and fire the 25-06 Rem round in the 270 Win chamber.
The 25-06 has a smaller bullet diameter than the 270.
.257" for the 25-06 and .277" for the 270.
It is NOT a safe practice to attempt to fire anything other than 270 Win cartridges in a rifle chambered for the 270 Winchester.
