Eric My 270 doesn't have an edge on it.. I'm like Oregon45 and actually prefer the balance better with the standard fill hunters compact on the fwt's. My 30-06 EW with the edge was too light in my opinion and just didn't feel right. Especially when shooting it off the bench . I'd rather shoot my 338 Alaskan. Thus it went down the road.. This is a great thread. Its got me to thinking about why I like my pre 64's so much and what it takes to make the "ideal" model 70. Well this thread and the recent "balance" thread has got me thinking. Kutenay put a lot of perspective on the whole thing. I'd like to add what I feel the ideal model 70 build should include: 1. Proper balance... 2. Ideal cartridge to weight ratio.. 3. Magazine capacity.. 4. Strength of both action and stock.. 5. Choice in optics and mounts/rings.. 6. Fitting the rifle to you and your needs. AKA proper ergos.. 7. Excellent accuracy. 8. Reliability and function. You should be able to roll all this up into a nice package and call it your "ideal" model 70 build..
