Re: Just What We Needed, Another .270

Hello Rule303,
I didnīt touch my rifleīs chamber! The normal European 7mm Mauser chamber has this dimentions.
The C.I.P. chamber standard for the 7x57 is:

By the way, I do the same thing with my 9,3x62. Because the magazine lenght of my BRNO ZKK is almost 89 mm and because the veeery long Commencement of the rifling in the standard 9,3x62 (28 mm...!!), the cartridges can be loaded much longer than the factory ones without any trouble. And feeds very fine! This increases the volumen of the case notably. And permits the use of many of the bullets loaded with the base at the shoulder-neck junction.
The C.I.P. chamber for the 9,3x62 is:

Sorry for the deviation of the original post theme about the new 6,8 mm cartridge. Anyway, I thought that data are somewhat related.
Best!
