I bought a 300wsm last Xmas ('04). Winchester blk/blk with a leupold scope and a box of ammo for $419 it was a bargin and the last one on the shelf. It wasnt suppose to come with the scope but they couldnt find there screw driver to take it off and i dont think the guy at academy realy cared either way so he just said merry Xmas and put it in the box =) Also came with a free hard case. Model 70 300wsm i love the gun shoots 1" groups outta 5. Its a close second to my 30-30. and it doesnt kik as much as i thought it would.

The M77 is a good rifle i have one in .270. I do like the LSS tho it is a very nice firearm.
