Cartridge would be correct.
The 270 is based on the 30-03. However 30-06 is considered the parent case. (Don't ask me why)
Regardless I think recoil might be a key consideration for choice.
Like I said... "I may be splitting hairs on this"... But it's fun fer me too research this kind of stuff
Also, I do tend to be a bit fussy on the caliber/cartridge thing... Sorry, sometimes I just can't help myself... That said, I've made the same mistake myself many times before I started to reload... The terminology in the hunting community varies from person to person... I probably shouldn't be so fussy, but like I said...
