Hello,
I am new to the forum but have enjoyed recreational shooting and hunting for years.
My son and I are planning a Colarado hunt in the next year or two for mulies. I have a 1960 era Remington model 700 chambered in 270 that was my first rifle.
I will never sell it but as we look at this adventure know that the old 270 isnt what it once was from an accurate and reliabality point.
Since a new Bergara, Tikka or similar is in the $900 range am I better off to use the action I have with a bedded stock and barrel or new gun?
The gun has sentimental value so I will never sell it but if the action isnt up to par with what is available in a new gun then the point of rebarreling us mute.
