Ok, i have had my eye on this gun for some time now, just wanted to hear some of your thoughts on it. I have a Win.Model 70 30.06 now but looking for something new. I never had stainless/snythic before, is there anything bad about it ? It's going to be a 270 cal. , i wanted a 25.06 but Winchester doesn't offer it in stainless. The gun will be for hunting deer. I thought about a Ruger but i'm a WINCHESTER man so that's the brand i want to stick with but i wasn't sure what caliber to get but i hear good things about 270's. Thanks !
