I meant it to mean how did it shoot originally?

blush It would put 2 shots together and the 3rd high and right. Tried free-floating and a shim under the action behind the recoil lug,it shot a little better,but not much.

I found a couple of pics that I had taken of the pre-64 model 70 in 30-06 that ALLEGEDLY was stocked by Beisen.

Obviously not Fleur-De-Lis.

That looks like a standard Monte Carlo factory stock that someone has customized, to me anyways.

Yup, living in BC, but, close (165 miles) to Spokane,WA. home of the Biesens, I have seen several "stocked by" rifles that were NOT "real" Biesen's.

I had a Biesen Fwt. 270, in autumn, 1968, and some older friends had other Biesen's, all P-64s. The fellow who sold it to me regreted doing so and pestered me until I sold it back to him and I never bought another.

Agree, I don't think that is a Biesen stock.

I think I agree with these 2 good guys. Just doesn't look like any Biesen I've ever seen....

My model 70 started out life as an Oberndorf type B sporter with a flat bolt handle.

[Linked Image]

I believe it was originally a 6.5 x 58. The previous owner stated the ammo was difficult to locate.

So his father had a Winchester barrel in 30/06 installed. Barrel dated 1961.

Sorry to disappoint. But it's the closest I have to a model 70..

Started as a Winchester 70 Extreme Weather Stainless Steel in .30-06

Modifications:
- McMillan Winchester Hunter stock as the factory stock was way too short for me (liked it otherwise)
- Timney trigger
- Cerakote coated

Outdoor Pics will follow - heavy rainfall today frown

Cool picture. Nice to see the old 30-06 is still adequate.

Here's a pic of my latest Mod. 70 EW, 270 Win., just recently bedded in an edge. I just shot it this morning, testing out some loads. Hopefully I'll have it dialed in at 200yds in the morning.
