So they pushed the neck back a little on a WSM and hey presto we now have a 270SAUM.

Looks Like Rem missed the boat again. A 270SAUM with a fast twist barrel. Not saying it is not a good cartridge but to me it is nothing more than marketing for the majority and a damn good fit for a few.

Round wheels! Don't be stupid man. Don't you know they are responsible for the demise of the Dinosaur and for climate change.

Have read that and to my knowledge Rem still claim not to have had a 700 action fail, as in loose the bolt. Yes a few have been rendered U/S but shooters face still in good condition.
