[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 1447070, member: 32525"] Took me a few days to get to it, but here are a couple of pics of the .270win I described in post #2 of this thread. I am really happy with how it turned out, as you could tell from my post #2. It basically looks bone stock, except the original 1970s era ADL came with iron sights and a gloss finish on the press checkered stock. The Shilen has no iron sights and when refinishing the stock we went with a satin finish, actually recut real checkering into the stock, and installed a more comfy recoil pad. I love this rifle. It's not as practical in all conditions as some of my others in HS or Magpul stocks with detachable magazines, or with massive Vortex Razor or PST Gen II, or NF ATACR scopes, but it is a simple, pure, go get a deer now rifle setup with a nice little 3.5-10 VX3 and it shocks the crap out of everyone who sees or shoots it because of how accurate and easy to shoot it is. I also like the ADL blind magazine- no need to worry about the bottom metal falling open, and it's one less thing to clean when I bring it home. :cool: Again, probably the one of the most expensive factory looking ADL setups I've ever seen, but I wouldn't change a thing about it.
