Who makes good .270 's?
 

I want to purchase a .270 and am wondering what is a good make.model to get?

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

WOW talk about a loaded ( no pun intended <grin> ) question. The answeer depends on budget .... NEF makes a nice single shot for about $ 250.00 after that Remmington, Winchester, Ruger, Browning, Weathreby, Tika, Sako

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

I don't know if pump action is your bag but Remington makes a good pump action model 7600 and you can also get a synthetic model. I had one and have always regretted selling it. The gun was very accurate. Good luck in your hunt for a rifle.

We could all list our favorite brand, but I'd suggest you take a look at the various brands within your price range and just pick the one that strikes you best. Outside of the really cheap stuff, about any of the rifles on the current market are well made and dependable.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

i would go by price, action you want and whatever feels nice when you bring it to your shoulder.like an extension of your arm

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

price range, i dunno, 500 or so i guess. There isn't really a fine line there.

I would like a bolt action.

Just not sure which brand or model is worth looking at.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

If that is your budget, check out the Wal-Mart Weatherby. It is made by Howa and is quite a rifle for the money. I think you might be able to get into a Tikka and/or a CZ for that money, as well.

Good Dogwork and Good Hunting

like i said, there not really a fine line on that budget.

There just so many different brands out there i have no clue

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

Also, some Wal-marts carry Howa rifles. (yes they started stamping the Howa name on it) I know Howa makes the .270 in most of their rifles (not the varminter). And, I personally like Howa rifles. Great prices and pretty accurate at the same time. Just a consideration...

One Shot, One Kill
Hunting is the one sport where, if you are playing right, the other team doesn't even know you're in the game.

They are all good guns it just depends what makes you happy. Which one is the most accurate depends on whom you ask . Find one you like in the price range you want to pay and enjoy it, they all work.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

Write down the names of the different manufactures you might be considering, then close your eyes and point at the paper, open your eyes and there is your rifle. I joke about that cause you will get a different opinion from everyone here on the best rifle. As with anything, you could get a lemmon or a tack driver. 99.99% are good guns whatever the brand but there are those few that could be excelent or just plain garbage.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

Check into Browning and Tikka. For the amount you mentioned, Browning might be out of reach, but the Tikka's are a little less expensive and seem to be highly regarded. In general, Savages are reputed to have a good accuracy, out of the box.

I have noticed, in more than a few posts, that people talk about changing the trigger or bedding in their new Savage/Remington/Winchester. I don't think that you absolutely need to do those things, but I don't recall seeing comments like that regarding the Browning or Tikka rifles.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

If I were you I would get a Remington Model 700 in a Mountain Rifle, or a BDL.

Why work when you can hunt???? Heck why work at all!!

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

look at browning or savage.

i would stay away from remington unless you can find a early 90's model.

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

i was looking at tikkas last night on the internet, they had so many different models i didn't know where to start.

whats the price range on these guns?

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

Go to a reputable gunshop that carries a good variety of guns and look at them all . The net will help but seeing the guns and handling them personally will help more . Myself I can't tell how a gun feels by looking at a picture And while getting somebody else opinion is nice in real life it might not please you .Just look at them all and form an opinion of your own . .

RE: Who makes good .270 's?
 

well, i don't wanto to buy one cause it feels good and looks good and ends up shooting like crap...hence would be why i'm here

RE: Who makes good .270 's?

wide eyes..

you do want a gun that fits good to you and feels like an extension of your arm. it will ( i think ) help you be a better shot compared to a rifle you have to reachthe forearm to far to feel comfortable. i had that problem with all my rem 7600 and had to hold under the magazine. which turning it into a 1shot instead of a pump cause i had to move my arm forward to cycle.
out of my experience with guns. i have found the savage, remington, and browning to be excellent guns for accuracy. my savage shoots less than 1" at 100yds. my browning medallion shoots 1.080" groups at 100yds.
i also have found from articles and from these WONDERFUL people on this site will tell you that tikka dose not send there guns out until they find out that they shoot decent groups. i for one never bought a tikka because i did not like the way the reciever is on them. it would be hard to manually put the ammo into the action like a blind magazine. they make that space real small for some reason.
