I have a 1996 M70 Classic Stainless action... feeling the need for a 1-10" 270 fWT barrel for it, probably DOuglas. A McMillan Hunters Edge, Talley X-Low Lwt's (have those), 6x36LR Leupold, (have it) PT&G Aluminum Bottom Metal (have it)... should work!
Likely 7.5lbs all-up. I know SamO called dibs but I would gladly save you the build grief and take that action off your hands. This would also keep you off the poobah fart list and such.

You know, I can't recall ever being in the Waterhole. Maybe I should try it some time, say a nice evening during the Stampede? Midnight and you should be good to go!

LOL.
Gotta say though, I'm struggling to understand how one of the most uniquely and purely American Cartridge is "gay"... guess it takes one to know one.

Samo aside, I do prefer the 84M to the 84L action...

SamO out, Brad prefers an 84M.... I am liking the way this is going.  I would even take PT&G bottom metal off your hands.

Brad, I think the 270 is only 'considered' gay because everyone already knows how sweet it is and is just joking around.
ANYTHING metric is way more fuuckin' gay....grin
The 270 is pretty much is the best cartridge ever devised.
I feel sorry for anyone who thinks otherwise.

Well Samo, I can't add anything to what you've said so perfectly.
Somewhere around here I've got one of Dober's bumper stickers from back in the day... "If ya ain't got a 270 ya ain't got [bleep]."

Anybody try 7828 with the 150 grain pills, if so how did it work. Found a bunch on the shelf at my friends gun shop. 4-6# of regular cut and 1# of SSC.

I feel sorry for anyone who thinks otherwise. Agreed! Well Samo, I can't add anything to what you've said so perfectly.

I don't know about magic, but I have not found anything better.

My local hardware store finally got the .270Win. ammo I ordered awhile back. My '57 Featherweight is itching to get out to the range. ![[Linked Image]](http://i875.photobucket.com/albums/ab311/bizypix/PC040005_zps264c7454.jpg)
