I posted this new to me KS .270 a short time ago and made it to the range this morning. 130 TTSX over 53gr IMR4350 at 100 yards. I can't remember if this is three or four rounds. Seems like I would have stopped at three! ![[Linked Image]](http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss226/ken6949/KS%20270%201_zpsez6hwby8.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i578.photobucket.com/albums/ss226/ken6949/KS%20Group_zpszhfvhcd8.jpg)

Too bad it's a .270, doesn't matter how accurate it is as you know the bullets are just going to bounce off.

24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

Very nice & pretty typical of what I've seen out of several KS's I've been exposed to.........I think you have a keeper.

Oh by the way kend, when my wife finds you, she's gonna kick your tail.
Thanks to your original thread, I fell in love with the KS 700's and guess what will be on the big brown truck shortly.
It's a 300Win Mag; I needed a magnum rifle like I need a hole in the head, but oh well. I really hope to find one in 270.
I hope mine shoots as well as yours does.

Congrats! Now we know it shoots as good as it looks:) The KS really might be the perfect blueprint & maybe one of the best factory rifes you could ask for.

I hope mine shoots as well as yours does. I'm too old to shoot a lightweight 300 win mag! I have a KS 7mm rem mag too that is scary accurate, but I had a miserable time getting it to shoot. The TSX bullet finally made it work. I shot that same load in the .270 today with some AB's and they spread to almost a couple inches. Tell your wife that I said she married a very intelligent guy.

Ken, you missed the bullseye entirely. Box it up and ship it to Ohio for disposal. Lol

It shoots as good as it looks, and it looks fantastic!
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Those KS rifles sure do shoot! That looks like a Brown Precision-stocked model. Early one?
You see them now and then here....think I recall seeing a left hand version yesterday. Nice rifles.
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.
