Olgrouser, your Supergrade looks great in the B&C stock, good idea to save wear and tear on the purdy wood it came with! And the Fwt is very classy. Sqweeler, an XTR standard in 6.5x55 like that is one of my dream rifles. How do you like it? Just won this in an auction. Its a 270 Win. Never loaded for or hunted a 270 yet. Going to try it as-is, but really tempted to rebarrel in 6.5x55 or 7x57. You guys are killing me with those rifles! Hey that's a mirror image of a .270 I picked up not too long ago!

I bought it from 7X57STEVE before he passed away. Obviously he did some work to the trigger because it's sweet. I think the scope is a Leopold VX3 3.5-10x40.

It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
