This is a sweet 1988 BAR win 270 that someone wanted me to do some work on, although the wood showed some damage and there was some rust pitting on the receiver it touched up nicely. I gather this was made by FN Herstal and "assembled" (mated to the stock?) in Portugal. From what I could tell the bore and rifling are in pretty good shape. Unfortunately, Browning intended these to be cleaned from the muzzle so there is wear in the muzzle crown, I see a few nicks here and there and I hope it doesn't tip the bullet on exit.
The rotating bolt with in-line multiple lugs reminds a lot of Weatherby's MK 5 bolts (or vice versa, I guess).
