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.

Well, maybe stocks... grin

I change out my older 700's so the bolt won't lock. I like to load and unload with the safety on. Don't have any new 700's, not looking for any.

I'm a M-70 fan, don't get me wrong, but the 700's do have their place.
