I got my son a Vanguard in 270 that Walmart was closing out for 250.00. It had the tupperware stock, wasn't floated , and had a heavy trigger. He loves it and shoots 3 shoot 1MOA groups with it. I got him to reload for it and it shoots the same 1 MOA groups. I want to float the barrel, bed it and adjust the trigger. He doesn't want me to mess with it, unless I get him a new thumbhole stock. He saw the add for the 1500s with the boyds thumbhole. It kills deer with his longest shot at 275 yards. It shot better out of the box than my M70 30-06.
