Custom rifle.

[460Wbymag]

I am having a .270 Ingwe made (my second) the reamer will be ordered today and now to start looking for a donor rifle. I have a CZ 550 in .270 Ingwe, but is is a little heavy and I want one just a bit lighter.
The CZ 550 .270 Ingwe.

.270 Winchester on the left and the .270 Ingwe on the right. Fixed.

The Ingwe is made with either .257 Roberts necked up, or the 7x57 (.275 Rigby) necked down to .277".

IIRC the 7x57 (.275 Rigby) on the right, center is .257 Roberts and the left is the .270 Ingwe.

The original reamer is in Texas being used and I don't want to wait for it.

is the middle photo reversed? Isnt 7x57 case is shorter than the standard 270 case?

 

[BrentD]

What does it do that the other two do not?

Shoot a .277" bullet.

What kind of velocities do you get out of this unicorn? (I never even heard of this cartridge before today..)

 

[460Wbymag]

Fullquiver, I am getting 2850 fps with a 130 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip.

With a 130 grain North Fork and Nosler Partition I am getting 2800 fps.

Velocities are from the 22" barrel.
