BobinNH wanted someone to start this thread. I've had one extractor go bad on my 270 fwt, but that's been it. Easily pulled the bad one off and put the new one on. Anyone else have any issues with a pre 64 model 70 rifle? All of mine function flawlessly, triggers work perfectly and tuned to 2.5 pounds, safety's work great, bolt stops work, they extract, eject, feed perfectly and smoothly, bolt handles haven't fallen off or anything like that. Let's hear about your failures. Thanks...
Mine is accurate, but not very reliable rifle. Quite often when chambering cartridge from fully loaded magazine the bolt just glides over first cartridge without chambering it. That is hard to understand because the action when I bought the gun showed almost no use or signs of bering fired a lot. If I ever had to defend myself against attacking animal chances are better than average I would get injured or killed.
