Funny reading through these responses. I have two rifles chambered in .270 Winchester.

1 - stainless tikka t3x

1 - 1960 Winchester model 70 featherweight.

This!! Preferably both!!

Last rifle I bought myself was a Kimber Montana in .270 WCF, It's almost too light.

If I draw an AK sheep tag this year, it;s coming along . . .

M70 featherweight....oh I already have that.

M70 Extreme is appealing to me. I've seen a Barret fieldcraft and that was really nice.

Both great choices.

I think it is a 55 BSA. The funny part is I have a T3X SuperLite with a McMillan Sako Classic EDGE in 270 that shoots AMAZING, but I believe it is going down the road when I find a buyer. I will never use it if I am picking between it and my Featherweight. I built the Tikka to be a lighter rifle, but once I got the P64 Featherweight 06 shooting, I barely touched the Tikka. It's ashame since it slings 150 Partitions, AB's and Bergers just a tick under 3000 with some of the best accuracy I've had yet, but again, it ain't my 270 Featherweight, so it sits.....

i'd get either a ruger hawkeye standard wood/blue or a win model 70 supergrade. I did have such a super grade, in 270win, but gave it to one of my grandsons 2 years ago. he's 11 now and loves the rifle.

I just bought a NIB Weatherby Accuguard for $500, I'll let you know how it shoots!

If it were today, current production choice would be a Winchester Model 70 Extreme Weather SS.

Not currently made anymore, I would choose a Classic Stainless from the New Haven years.

Win M-70 FWT or, if you can find them, Rem 700 KS, Rem 700 Ti, Rem 700 MR.

Hard to go far wrong with any of them. I have the M-70 & the KS in 270 & the Ti & MR in other chamberings, all are great.

For more $$$, the Christensen Mesa Ti is a really nice rifle.

MM

Tikka superlite.

Rifle looney rules dictate a featherweight model 70

Saw a Forbes at the local shop marked down to $1099. I was tempted and haven't even had a 270 in over a decade.

Did it have the safety cutout that looked like a retarded has a temper tantrum with an ice auger?

The two forbes 20b I seen weighed just about the same as a t3 superlite. 5lb 8oz or so and didn't Shoot great either.

1. Winchester 70
2. Tikka T3X

LOL, not that I noticed, but since I wasn't in the market I didn't look that closely. I was tempted because the few I've been around shot very, very well.

That’s fantastic.
How those ever got out of the factory looking like that will always be a an enigma.

Do you recall if it was a jeweled or fluted bolt?

If you have the budget I would get a Kimber Montana if not I would get a Tikka T3 lite stainless....Good luck....Hb

Its pretty simple at this point for me and 15% of the left hand population. You get what is available because you have very few choices, and good luck finding anything and you might need to go custom.

Ive got a stainless Ruger Hawkeye 270 im going to try out and its what i own so there it is. Im not a Tikka person but really Sako and Tikka have perhaps the most selection for us lefty folks so id be tempted if needed to purchase one.
