Montana Rifle Company ~ Model 1999 ~ .270 Win

Description:
This beautiful walnut stock bolt action rifle is a Montana Rifle Company Model 1999 chambered in .270 Winchester. The Montana Rifle Company are the folks who in 1999 came out with a hybrid action that combined the best features of the `98 Mauser and the Winchester Model 70, but also incorporated unique design features of their own, which improved on both of those iconic designs. On cursory examination of a Winchester Model 70 and an MRC Model 1999 side by side, about the only readily observed difference is in the bolt stop/release. On the Model 70 it's a simple lever made of sheet stock that pivots vertically in a slot on the left underside of the receiver bridge. A small extension of this lever juts up just behind the left bridge wall, and when pushed forward, pivots the lever downwards out of the left lug raceway. On the Montana action the bolt stop is more Mauser-like in that it's housed on the side of the receiver bridge. It's more obtrusive, but classier. By dovetailing the lock lugs and machining the raceways to match, it provides more lateral stability to the bolt, smoother operation, and less tendency to bind. .270 Winchester
