Bought the rifle as a SS SPS and it was short chambered, asshole gunshop owner would not exchange it with either of the other two still in the boxes....had to send to Rem, well I had narrowed the trigger shoe and so when it came back it was COD for $80 for a new trigger. Well when Rem test fired it they never cleaned the action from the chips of the finish reaming...galled the bolt lugs. Sent back again to Rem and they pretty much emery clothed the lugs and reblued them. So now I hated the rifle and held it for about 3 years and tried to sell it a few times but nobody really wanted a SS WSM acton I guess!
So I bought a New Take Off 6.8SPC SS barrel and traded my 223 M700 for the stock and Badger M4, bought optics and mounts and now have a shooter!! Consistant enough for me out to 1111 yards and below so needless to say I am happy with it and figured I would show it off since I never but never see any 270WSM's on the hide. I kept the 270WSM because I am already set up with the reloding components and when this barrel is gone I might stay with the 270WSM but might go 7WSM too...who knows.
From a POS that I hated it is now somthing I like.
SS M700 action
PTG Recoil Lug Pinned
Old Style M700 trigger
Factory take off 6.8SPC Varmint Contour SS barrel
HS stock with extra ass end weight and a Limbsaver pad
9-13 Swivel Harris on it's way to replace the non swivel
EGW 20 MOA base
Burris Low Rings
Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14 Mildot scope...great glass and ranges on 12x...1/4MOA adjustments though
DD Ross Tac Bolt Knob
Badger M4 Bottom metal
All Duracoated Matte Black
All Gunsmith work done by a Local guy that turns out some impressive shit for doing it in his garage. Has a buisness and insurance if anybody in the NW Washington is looking for a good smith...he is so bored he is taking on Berretta 92's....retired military and does it for a hobby so he is not out to fuck the customers...what he did for me cost me $350.
If anybody else has a Tactical 270WSM rifle throw it on here as well. I can post up the drops I was getting out to 1111 yards also if anybody has interest.
Only thing I dislike is how long the bolt handle is...I might have him shorten it up like my 300WM's...never even gets near your knuckle while on trigger.
Help me pick a color for the stock!!
Nice little touch with the colored "F" and "S"
