    The BC stock would be last on the list too. Def want to put the suppressor on it to take the bark out of it. as for the hardy, A friend of a friend who's auntys friend shagged some guys step brothers mother. One of those situations. Anyway he has a couple he can free up to put on mine. Dpt was on my mind too. Don't need to spend too much more on a scope, already spent a pretty penny on my swarovski z5. As for milling, it must just be a weight saving operation, anyway a rail will be on top so that limits the ability to top load regardless.
    keep em coming.

    i completely disagree re b an c and believe the priorities are wrong

    i have upgraded 2 of my rifles with b&c and they are much better than the standard.

    I have just finished first steps of my Tikka .270 modification

    B&C stock - much better, stiffer and no give around recoil lug, shoots firm of bipod small cost and real nice finish
    Sako optilock rings - spend the money dont fuck around with the other stuff, these are built specifically for the job and hold like shit to a blanket.
    Alutek Bottom metal and bolt shroud - Eh this one is just because the plastic was removed no real advantage but great parts and finishes it nicely
    Suppressor - Get a can but go for a small can, the durillium from Gworks is really good, for the .270 its really just the loud crack (which is significant) you need to dampen so small suppressor will be fine. i did not shorten my barrel, this dampening of the crack helps mask direction of the shot which is important when firing at multiple targets
    Scope - go for a good one however as its a .270 a better scope less zoom is better than a high zoom average scope 14 power is ideal as max zoom but make sure you have a 50mm obj

    Next steps im currently talking with GWorks

    Fluting - barrel and bolt, really just for porno factor as it adds nothing
    Shorten barrel - too long with suppressor, feels like a javlin, and for the .270 a slight loss in speed means jack shit
    trigger work - standard issue

    can post pic if you require
