Default 270 wsm that isn't

I bought a brand new savage 16flhss in 270wsm, at least that's what the stamp read.
Turns out that it's chambered as a 300wsm. would it have any value as a collectable?

Thumbs up

they don't know how it got threw all the inspections.
But I must say they are being realy good about. Gave me another new one, plus, Burris 3X9X40mm scope mounted and bore sighted. And a couple boxes of ammo.
So i have nothing bad to say about them.

Did you have to return it to Savage or the dealer you bought it from?

Thats awesome, glad to hear Savage has gone the extra mile to fix this.

BTW, were you planning on putting a nicer scope than the Burris they gave you
