Yes you can. What I would recomand is to run it through your bullet seating die first then your Full lenth resizeing die. The seating die is alittle over size and lets you take your brass down in 2 steps. The brass you form will have a smaller capasity that factory .270 brass so you will have to load alittle less powder in them.

If I recall you will end up with brass just slightly shorter than minimum .270 brass. Won't hurt anything but something to be aware of.
