I have its twin. Fine rifle. My son grabs it instead of others regularly. I use it in nice weather when hunting on a plot or clear cut. It’s deadly accurate with that 26” barrel.

If he can handle a 270 he will be just fine.

Any interest in trading for S&W wheel guns in presentation case? I have a .41 Rem Mag and .44 Rem Mags to choose from. Very good condition. If you are interested I'll get pics, model #'s and ser #s.

No trades. I'm trying to fund other gun wants, and they're not cheap... frown

I have one in .243 that has knockout walnut wood. I agree, these will be highly sought after in a few years. Great bang for the buck and great investment!

One thing I have noticed is the wood grade can vary a lot.

Still can’t believe someone hasn’t jumped on this gun.

Life is waaaay to short not to have at least 1 beautiful rifle. Just look at what wood stocked Kimbers sell for now. If i hadn't just bought a new M70 Featherweight. I would have that rifle in my safe. I know, I know-- it's not a cheap gun but the pride of ownership is worth a lot. Synthetic stocked rifles will never have that WOW factor.
