What really hampered it's introduction is the firearms Winchester introduced it in.
A lever action & a semi auto.
Had they introduced it in their Model 70, with a shorter throat, i think it would have caught on better.
Then some idiot gun rag writer was trying to compare it the 270 Win with non existant bullets for the 270 & saying it offers no gain.
Took F-Class shooters using it in the form of the 6.5-284 for it to catch on.
