Howdy all,
I've got a project that needs direction. The objective is to have fair weather rifle that is nice but no safe queen, light enough for stalking, and in a chamber that fills a different niche from what I already have (Sako 579 243, Featherweight M70 270 Win, Standard M70 .30 Gov't, and an M71 in 348). I hunt deer and pigs, but aspire to hunt mulies, elk, and sheep.
The starting point is a drilled up Pre War model 70 I purchased some time ago, in a custom McMillan Game Scout with a heavy varmint, almost Palma contour 22-250 barrel. I've no use for 22-250 and the rifle is more cumbersome than I'd like.
So, I solicit anyone's ideas and past projects who might share.
Thanks
