    Keep it. Drop down to 110gnrs at about 3000fps and you'll have equivalent to a 708/243. Dropping too a 223 is really the only way too make a significant step in power and recoil. Recoil with 110's won't be much. Just choose a toughest projectile to minimize meat danage. Then you'll see a great fallow buck at 400yrds and wished you had the 270.

    Think you'd be disappointed in what you might get for it. If you're hell bent on selling it Id drop the scope and rings, and the bipod. Bare rifle and suppressor might be more sell-able.
    270 with a suppressor isn't to bad to shoot so the idea of some 100 or 110 gr projectiles with a mild load will shoot all the Fallow you'll see
