Default Why not 180 grain .270??

Why don't they have a more diverse selection of bullet weights for the .270? I mean, the .031" difference between .277 and .308 is irrelevant, as far as damaging tissue, in my opinion.

That said, why don't they make the .270 with 165 and 180 grain loads? It's the same case as the 30.06 so it would push the bullets and make the the .270 a legitimate Elk rifle.

I know you can claim "why should they when they have the 30.06. Well, one reason is the 130 grain loading at over 3,000 fps.
