No I'm not talking politics here. The big brown truck (UPS) came and brought two Super Grades, a 220 Swift and a 300 H&H. Both guns are a solid 95% as far as wood and metal finish goes maybe a little better. They both lack the swivels unfortunately but I can live with that.

I'll get the 300 scoped up and start working up a suitable deer load immediately. I'm thinking a 150gr Hornady or a 165gr NBT. Both bullets work well in my other 300 H&H.[Linked Image]<a href="http://s328.photobucket.com/user/rlanderson410/media/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0809_zpsap7wc5gh.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l355/rlanderson410/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0809_zpsap7wc5gh.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo IMG_0809_zpsap7wc5gh.jpg"/></a><a href="http://s328.photobucket.com/user/rlanderson410/media/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0806_zpsywhhptl0.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l355/rlanderson410/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0806_zpsywhhptl0.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo IMG_0806_zpsywhhptl0.jpg"/></a><a href="http://s328.photobucket.com/user/rlanderson410/media/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0807_zpskq42ehh7.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i328.photobucket.com/albums/l355/rlanderson410/Pre64%20M70%20Super%20Grades/IMG_0807_zpskq42ehh7.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo IMG_0807_zpskq42ehh7.jpg"/></a>

Beautiful guns. Pad original to the H&H?

To the best of my knowledge the pad is original. It matches the markings and description in Rules book. I have another 300 H&H a std rifle that has the metal but plate.

Both of these guns are one owner guns from an estate. Local guy who retired from GM. They have seen very little use. The Swift dates to 1953 the H&H to 1958.

Excellent. If you come up with a good Nosler 165 load I'd be interested. Mine doesn't care for what I've tried.

Nice pair of rifles, I'd like to pick up a model 70 swift at some point. It'd be hard to beat those two though.
