Marty,
Replying to your post regarding my .270 mountain rifle. Yes, it is still for sale. Feel free to call me at 814.777.6869. I live just a few miles outside Centre Hall.
Thanks.
Mark
I prefer my fire breathing dragon .300 win mag but my barrel is a 24” and I hand load 180 grain bullets which has proven to be great medicine for elk. If having a shorter barrel still bothers you have a new and longer barrel spun on your current rig. If you need a reason to justify a new rifle...
Salida is a favorite for me and my buddies. Be sure to hit Mt. Princeton Hot Springs (you can rent a room or cabin there too). Cool old mining ghost town of Mt. Elmo is nearby and known for the hummingbird flyway.
Red Rocks Amphitheatre is a must see too.
Cheers!
Mark
