The nice 270 is my son's but he does not shoot it much as he wants to shot his 338 RUM but it is set up for deer hunting.
A friend gave me this old 270 and I thought I could set it up for dogs and from the comments on this thread I could hand the gun out to friends who want to use it for their kids first deer hunt.
The rifle is a pile of crap. LOL... Sear's and Robuck and some rust Mauser 98 action. Iron sites.. Perfect gun to loan to someone. So it if gets dropped or if the kid falls and it hits the ground there would be no stress to the relationship between the person who asked to borrow it and me.
