Jani,
I suspected as much. I too am a southpaw and have a batch of lever rifles in the stable. I also collect classic sporters, hence my being on this forum. I find the extra cheek pressure exerted using an offset scope on one of my "classic" types is distracting but not too bad. I have a long neck so leaning over the comb isn't a hindrance. With the 270, recoil shouldn't be bad enough to be uncomfortable, especially for shots at game. Realize the stock will be rising into your face. I've used both Weaver and Williams and it is a toss up as far as I am concerned.
