Im thinking a Husky small ring. I can't remember if its a model 146 maybe? Also sold under the sears banner as a 53L ? and also badged for a short time for Smith and Wesson. Very nice little actions. Sorry I can't remember the model numbers exactly.

Looks like a HVA 1640.
Look at the bolt stop/ release.

Yes, it is most certainly a Husqvarna 1640 HVA action of the type imported into the U.S. by Husqvarna, S&W, and Tradewinds.

Definitely a Husky 1640. I've had several of them over the years. They tend to kick out of their stocks if you don't bed them but they're very accurate and superb lightweight hunting rigs.

If Montana had a standing army, a 270 Win with Federal Blue Box 130's would be the standard issue.
