    I can see how that would still cause severe heartache.

    @Shearer not sure why they would make these actions in full titanium ...
    These older actions did have some titanium parts though I think the firing pin and extractor were titanium, I had another Harre action rifle in 25 Souper (25/308) they were both very slick .

    I put a down payment on this Mod60 S&L the other day. Been after one for a while now. Rear locking lugs, cock on closing, low bolt throw. No alum, plastic or pot metal anywhere on the action etc. All steel. Bore is pretty mint for age. The 4x81 Pecar in low Weavers is classic for the era. Wood is nothing special, it’s all about that action... and in 270 too...

    60’s/early 70’s. I’ve been looking for the right one for about five years. They come up but often in 7x61 sharp&hart which is a bit hard to get hold of unless your organised etc

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
