I was so distraught over my broken stock RS I drowned myself in finishing my first wildcat. A pre-mil 99 in 270 Redding! This project has been a year of fits and restarts, but as Rory says, it kept me outta the bars. Much encouragement (enabling) from several campfire members (Thanks!). No targets yet, but soon! ![[Linked Image]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii249/Jeff518/99x%20270%20Redding/th_270Redding011_zps55fb2ca3.jpg) URL=http://s266.photobucket.com/user/Jeff518/media/99x%20270%20Redding/270Redding010_zps61d3c981.jpg.html] ![[Linked Image]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii249/Jeff518/99x%20270%20Redding/th_270Redding010_zps61d3c981.jpg) [/URL] ![[Linked Image]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii249/Jeff518/99x%20270%20Redding/th_270Redding007_zps03157389.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii249/Jeff518/99x%20270%20Redding/th_270Redding005_zps778f6bc7.jpg)

Wow! what a project! Was the donor a takedown? I have to admit that's a tough one to figure out with the forearm off

Yes Steve, it is quite a project, and I'm quite proud to have it up and running. This was a late 900,??? model F in 308, not a takedown originally. The aluminum forearm hanger is attached to the face of the receiver, the the wood forearm attaches to it, leaving the barrel free floating (!!). ![[Linked Image]](http://i266.photobucket.com/albums/ii249/Jeff518/th_270Redding020_zps3bdfedfd.jpg)

Outstanding choice Jeff. Really anxious to see how it performs for you. This is the cartridge the 270 Titus wants to be when it grows up.
