Is it possible?

Most definitely its fantastic just slept on

I would only do the 175gr if I had a higher more better rifle so I could utilize longer barrels and twist and all that

I probably would run the 175s. I’m sure it would be pretty anemic but can be done.

Honestly, I think you’d better stick to factory ammo. Find something that groups good and use it for everything.

Yeah honestly thats what I plan on doing i wanna try some remington core lokts

You can shoot 65gr to 195gr if you have a 8twt barrel.
And yes the 308 is the parent cartridge for 243, 7-08, 260Rem, 338 federal just to name a few. I made a 270-08 out of the 308. Only your imagination limits you.

Depending on your taste, building a rifle is not that expensive. You don’t have to have the most expensive components on the market.
Talk with a remear manufacturer ( Manson, JLG…) have a remear made and a Gunsmith.
Buta Bing- Buta boom. Your shooting something You designed.
Savage component Work and are Not very expensive.
I can help you.

Whats a 270 08? How did it perform?

A 270 caliber bullet, shooting out of a necked down 308win case. Up to 130gr bullet it’s just slightly slower than a270win. It’s a shame that Winchester hasn’t come out with it.

308winchester,
7-08 Remington,
270??? Win.???
260 REM.
243 Winchester
All of these are made out of the 308 win. Case.

With a 8twt barrel you can shoot bullets up to 170gr .

I can comfortably shoot 170 out of my 270-08 at just under
2800fps.
