No boil at all man. I'll take your word regarding bullet availability. As I don't reload it doesn't mean anything to me. I like the greater .270 off the shelf ammo availability, and that is what swayed me (the "I can get ammo almost anywhere!" argument). In retrospect, it really wasn't a big factor in the end as I don't buy cheapo ammo from Canadian Tire or Walmart anyway. I looked long and hard at the .280 too, almost bought one. Not that much to choose between them I'm thinking.... now my old .303, different matter

Seems like splitting hairs.... .270, .280, 7-08.... only the guys with ballistics charts can tell any difference, the game can't IMHO.... very humble LOL
