   Im inclined to agree with caberslash that the 270 neednt be a heavy recoiling cartridge and a lot of rifles in it are on the heavy side which helps too. If hes over 80kg himself and under 50 years he...

   This subject’s been done to death in the past but here’s my 2c; a suppressed tikka is what I would be looking for in one of the following cartridges: -243. This is a very good option due to minimal...

   The 270 Winchester in it's intended 130 grain loading is not a heavy recoiling cartridge, not sure where this idea comes from? Loaded up with a 100 or 110 grain copper bullet it feels comparable...

   The thing is a lot of guns end up with a suppressor. The 270 is excellent for farmland and open top ( and the moors of Scotland;-) and when you don't have to go in tight bush. And it is still good...

   Reasonable priced used rifle with a good trigger and spend the rest on a very good reliable scope.

   Or get an aftermarket trigger at the same time, Any short action, 243, 6.5cm, 7m08 etc, I would not go as large as 308. Z

   I would agree with ZQLewis. 6.5cm or maybe 7mm08 would be the go. 6.5creedmoor definitely seems to have overtaken 7mm08 for factory ammo options. Federal don't seem to be doing their newest lines...

   A newbie might be a bit more recoil sensitive so something like a 6.5 Creedmoor (.264 cal) might be just right, plenty of good factory ammo available in a wide range of bullet types and weights. Good...

    Agreed, or just swap a newer Howa HACT trigger for the old single stage one (easily spotted and the old one had a proper shoe for the saftey lever, not a bent bit of metal). Don't think two stage...

    Greetings All, A decent trigger is an absolute must. Nothing worse for a newbie than a trigger he has to fight with. Regards Grandpamac.
