Bonus 20: 270 Winchester Parent Case: 30-06 or 30-03?

In this short bonus episode, I dig into one of the most persistent cartridge history arguments in the shooting world: is the 270 Winchester a necked-down 30-06 Springfield or a necked-down 30-03 Springfield? In this episode I walk through the historical timeline, the dimensional facts, what contemporary sources actually said, and why the lack of primary evidence matters. If you've ever wondered which claim holds up, this is the breakdown.
