Got a email from sportsman's whse today advertising guns for less than $500. So i started glancing over their entire portfolio of rifles < $500.
Though listed as out-of-stock, they apparently offered the model 70 extreme tungsten in 270 for $489.99.
It's specificatons include a muzzle break, creokote fluted barrel, B&C medalist stock.
Im wondering if any on this forum were able to take advantage of this offering when it was in stock.
It appears to be a sexier Portugal version of the SW exclusive i purchased in 2010 known as an Extreme Sporter for $650.

I see it was produced in a 26 inch 264. That could have saved me some trouble. Though the brake would have been removed and discarded. Plus they probably counted the brake in barrel length.
MSRP = $1759.99
That would have been one hell of a clearance price.

Was wondering if it was an incredible screw up by SW web staff, and a possible fix is simply post as "out of stock".

The previous version was specified as stainless. I still kick myself for not buying one when they were down around $800-900.
