Would the following controller method work for you. I currently use this controller method to make a downloadable resume on my site.

    public FileResult DownloadResumePdf()
    {
        string filename = Server.MapPath("~/Content/Downloads/Resume.pdf");
        return File(filename, "application/pdf", "Resume.pdf");
    }
