Anyone have an idea how steep the hill is to locate an excellent shape 270 new haven era take off barrel? Trying to work out a project or I should say restoring someone's project. and figured I ought to know more about sourcing that kind of thing. Need to visit mr google over the weekend.

Needing blue, if possible should have noted that, but if nothing else pops I will loop back.

Got a blued factory take-off barrel from a left hand Classic Sporter "Made in New Haven, CT". Finish is 98 to 99% and interior is in great shape as well but it's also a 30-06.

OK, on the board. I have a 30-06 stainless so preferring the 270, but waiting on a call from the original owner so if it was a 30-06 that may be the way I go.

I will have one very shortly, once I have a 9.3 barrel installed. Finally have all the parts just need a smith to make the switch. It’s a lh blued 270 win with no marks and limited rounds.

What's different about the barrel on a RH or LH rifle? Opposite twist? Lettering stamped on left side vs right?

Well I am sad to say I missed out on my 6 digit m70 rifle so not going to be resurrecting the hybrid scout cantilevered Frankenstein to its original self as I had hoped. Thanks to all
