Hello the High Road,
My last rifle purchase is coming together. In October 2014 I purchased a FN Winchester model 70 featherweight (270). I'm looking for customization opinions on the project as well as reputable gunsmiths (I live in Northern California however would be willing to ship my rifle for the project.)
The rifle shot factory out of the box groups at about an inch and a half off the bull's-eye at 100 yards. The rifle shot factory out of the box groups at about an inch and a half off the bull's-eye at 100 yards.
So far we have had the action bedded and we have free floated the barrel as well as a trigger job which is set at about 3 pounds . We have put on a Galco Ching sling, and Galco bullet cuff in Dank Havana. As far as Glass and rings we have added Tally low mounts and on top a CDS VX3 with leupold scope caps. So this is where the highroad comes in to play hopefully .
What should I do next to the project ? I'm thinking of the bottom metal. And a New England custom front sites. Please chime in what would you do to a rifle that you would never get rid of and you had some extra cash to put in to make a real tack driver
