D'Arcy's making rifles with 700 actions now?

All the 700 ribbing notwithstanding, for me it's a matter of looks (like the safety and bolt handle looks), but the real show stopper is I just can't accept a bolt that can't be locked. As to the Classics, all the ones I own, shoot every bit as well as my pre-64s.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
