I have a 270 win adl sitting around at the house that we never shoot I had got it in a trade, I'm wanting to use the action for a rebuild my question is what calibers can I build with this action and what are some good calibers that I should consider building. I currently have a few 30-06 rifles, a 25-06.

None of the calibers mentioned really "beat" .270, except maybe the .35 Whelen and the .338/06, and then only on larger game. I'd get a varied selection of handloading components, (or ammo) mount some decent optics on the rifle, if it doesn't already have them, bed it, if it needs it (lots of 700's need to be), or re stock it, and just see how well it will perform. Lots of factory barrels perform well when fed ammo they like and out of a properly bedded rifle. IMHO.
