Those new ones look awesome, I wish they would have went with the old style red recoil pad though.

Thanks, I've been wanting one for a long time but the right one just hasn't presented itself or I was too late to the dance a couple of times (here in the classifieds). Finally got lucky.. grin

I noticed that too. Let me know if you want to trade for my hunter stock I have on my 1951 std weight 30-06. It's even pillar bedded... whistle grin

Yep, most are. I know how you feel. I couldn't bear to do that to my original stock so I sold it off to someone that would appreciate it for what it was. I just wanted a shooter model 70. I'm not regretfull but have learned and am keeping my 1956 fwt 30-06 all original.....You better hang on to that one, it sure is a beauty!!

Don't feel bad. Mine is that way too. I sold this stock on ebay, what a dummy huh....:

It was wrapped in plastic and in a box and I didn't see any use for it since I had mine set up as a shooter and it is the way I like it now:

My new to me 63. 30/06 standard.

That is not a mark on the barrel, lint I guess. The bluing has no wear other than from the action being worked a few times. Wood has very few safe marks.


JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

Looks good to me, when I get a buttplate I can move that scope forward a little. Length of pull is a little to long for me. blush
