    Just a SWAG but, yes. Misfeed, something, esp. as the case is so much shorter than 30-06.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    I have two M1s in 270, which does not seen that much different from 264. They do have less recoil and with a little more metal in the barrel, maybe a little more accurate. I purchased one new from Springfield Inc. (Special Order) about thirty years ago and I bought a 270 barrel from Gun Parts and had it put on a 9m/m barrel which was on a Blue Sky in the early 90's.
    You know what a 9m/m barrel is? It is a barrel that will take a 9m/m round to the case at the muzzle.

    If you were going for accuracy what about 280AI? Lots of people seem to be using it for long range bolt action builds.

    Pretty funny...not very accurate. Guess it would be broadside at the muzzle...
