Nice rifles guys. The model 70 is one of my favorites. Since you brought it back to the top, I'll share a new model 70 I bought about a week ago. Made almost a 500 mile round trip to pick it up from a great forum member here. It's a real nice classic fwt chambered in 7mm08. I've had my eye on this one for a while. Since no one was buying it, I said I'd take it. Glad I did too. Came just like you see in the pic, except I put a set of Leupold dual dovetails on it. Those are my preferred ring/mount combo on my winchesters anymore:
This rifle is sweet and I promised to take care of her. I've already fine tuned the trigger and dropped the pull wt. down to a crisp and smooth 2.5 pounds. Next step is my usual glass bedding and load development. I also wanted to thank the seller again for such a great deal!!!!
