Another, a .270 my dear friend John stocked years ago and passed it on to me, to be enjoyed in my family for generations to come..

I'm going to go and shoot my lowly ol 270 fwt. tomorrow to help get my mind off your rifle... . Very nice rifles guys. I'd love to have a nice stock on any of my pre 64's. One of these days, I hope to get a Biesen or similar. I'd probably be scared to take it into the woods though.. Originally Posted by raybass I try to stick with the basics, they do so well.
