I also have one in .270. A great rifle with great accuracy and can handle a lot of abuse... I've put mine through hell. I've taken deer over 200 yards with it, with great results. Nothing to complain about other than the bolt. It has some play and it isn't all that crisp, and it has rust that just won't come off. I opened the gun out of the case and noticed it right off the bat. I'm not stressing it though.
Notice the rust... closer to the firing pin.
Just curious why you didn't try to get the bolt replaced? That is very wierd for it to be rusted like that, especially if it won't co me off.
