I would consider selling the NIB rifle if anyone is interested. It is a beautiful rifle but it doesn't have quite the character in the stock as the one posted above.

The other poster that said he bought a Timney for his, wasted a chit ton of money. The Ernie spring is the only way to go for the MOA. I also used to have a 2008 limited edition, but it was a 300 WSM. I found it at a local gunshow for $600.00. It only had a box of ammo though it too.

Here's that 2008 270 you've been looking for (I was looking for the '06 and took this one home instead)...

Came with a vx3 3.5-10x40 w a boone n crocket reticle for $645 out the door. Not a scratch on it and no muzzle wear, so must be a low round count... I figured worst case scenario is i sell the rifle for a small profit and get the scope for free!😀😀

I might sell one of my plastic stocked rifles to fund that thing. "A .358 Norma Mag is not for everyone but then again Bear hunting isn't either." Unknown Bear guide on the Kodiak coast
