My Dad has used his 270 as his go to rifle for a long time. He has others he has used, but that Ithaca/Tikka is what he reaches for when he wants accuracy.
He worked over the trigger and, I think, bedded it. He bought it in the 70s at a second hand shop for an absurdly low price, scoped it with a 3x9 Redfield and hasn't changed a thing since.
Scary accurate, nice rifle. Have considered buying one for myself as well.
