Current Run Winchester M 70's ?
Anybody recently buy a new Winchester M70 rifle?
What is the word on the street about the out of the box accuracy?
I know the price has gone up has the quality followed suit?
Any other info?
Thanks
Tom

I haven't shot one yet but I held one of the Featherweight Deluxe models and it was sweet and beautiful. They are made by FN now so accuracy should be good.

There is a new trigger design on them . The last issue of am. hunter had a write up on them, accuracy tests didnt look that impressive.

I have yet to shoot one, but I was allowed to dry fire one at the shop a couple weeks ago and the trigger was light and VERY crisp.
