The .276 cartridge was used in the testing of rifles in the late 20's. John Pederson and John Garand designs were tested using these, the rifles designated Semi-automatic Rifles, both T1 and T3, Caliber .276. The .276 cartridge use was due to the thought that a .30 cal semi automatic rifle could not be designed around it, that was light enough. In 1932 The War Dept adopted the .30 vs .276 and this round became a part of history.
