History of the Experimental .267 Remington Rim-fire Cartridge:
Some years before World War II, Remington Arms Company experimented with a number of powerful rimfire cartridges with some 30 variations in .23 to .32 caliber to replace the 25 Stevens rim-fire cartridge.The .267 was the cartridge chosen to be marketed and test cartridges were produced at the Peters and Remington factories to be tested in the Remington, Experimental, Model 610 bolt-action rifle; however, when World War II came, the war effort became far more important.After World War II, other ideas and concepts came along and the .267 was never revived into production.There were 5 different head stamps and also proof & dummy factory cartridges were also known to have been produced.
