270 Win anniversary celebration

[peaceful_ruler]

This year the old faithful .270 Win has turned 100. I personally feel that this cartridge is the ultimate deer killer…whether you live in the east or west. I just finished my Tikka T3X build in .270 Win and it is a beauty! AG Composites Privateer, Swarovski Z3 3-10x42 BRH in Talley extra lows, MT Tactical bottom metal, and an ARCA/Pic rail from SRS. I also updated the trigger spring to lower the pull weight a bit. Total weight is just under 7.5 pounds so probably nearing 8# fully loaded. The only additions I’m thinking about are a sunshade and level. Three shots off the bipod gave me .66 MOA with Federal Fusion 130s this afternoon. Show us your .270 rifle…

This was my Dad’s 270 Win. I took this buck with it two years after he passed. He always considered it his “long range” rifle because he felt confident with it out to 300 yards. I miss the old man.

Bought new in 2002. M70 featherweight.
Few years ago I refinshed the stock and had it cerakoted.

I have one at the gunsmith right now, should be done April-May. It was originally planned to be a 280 Ackley but it just seemed right to build it into a 270 given the year.

I have a 270win barrel for my tikka hunting rifle. It wears a 6.5cm barrel most of the time for practice and hunting, but in theory it’s also a .270.
