I have a couple Winchester Model 70's in .270 that shoot nice, I would look at Ruger as well.

My 270 Browning A-bolt is a complete tack driver! Lots of one shot kills, get a rem or tikka or any of the others and in a few years your going to start to wish you got the Browning, spend the little extra and get the buckmark!

A 270 is the caliber I've always wanted but never have had. I got pre 64 model 70 winchester 30-06 from my father when I was a kid and later a Rem 700 7mm mag. Maybe my next rifle.

My son has a Vanguard in 270 that just loves his Federal Premium Noslar Partitions. It's neen a tack driver right out of the box.

(huntnphool....I've always wanted a Rugar 77, maybe I'll get one in 270?)

Good choice :twocents: I've not had a single issue with any Ruger rifle I have owned, a .270 would make for a good all around hunting rifle in the states.

The Browning A-bolt is a nice gun alright,I'll check to see if it fits my budgit or not.

 Still debating Wood or synthetic stock too?, mull, and don't care for the kick a light rifle produces either.
