https://www.gunbroker.com/item/829750257Really good piece of lumber for a non-Super Grade. And I’m fresh out out gun budget this month. Maybe that’s a good thing......

I saw that last night and sent that to a fellow enthusiast. I agree with you slope, that is a fine stick for a non SG. My stainless 270's twin. Wish I could buy 'em all. Isn’t that the truth!

I have one of the stainless Featherweights in 7Mag, and a 338 just like this one as well. Put decelerator pads on them long ago. I would want to do that with this one too, if I was going to use it, and that pretty much screws the collector value. I don’t think that this would be a shooter for me, and all my firearms are shooters.

If it were a featherweight, id think about buying it. I dont get along very well with the factory sporter stock. I dont care how "pretty " it is.
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

^^^^^^^ If it were chambered for something I like better (not that I think there is a thing wrong with the 7mm RM), I might be bidding against you. But I'm not. Good luck!

Ive got one unfired with hang tags in 30-06 that I have been thinking about letting go to a new home. The wood isn't near as figured as the GB ad. Its a Connecticut rifle. I wonder what a good asking price would be.
Ive also got a stainless featherweight that I have hunted quite a lot with.

Ive also got a stainless featherweight that I have hunted quite a lot with. Hang tags and box MAY get you over 1k on an auction site (‘06) although you might end up closer to the $800-$900 mark. Last one I recall (nib same configuration) on GB was a 270 that went for 8 and change about a year ago. $800 here on 24 and it’s gone today. Need more info on fw.
