Odd...I've gunned 'em from inception,to the current crop and have never stumbled anywhere near a "bad" one. Fact is,they just might be rather well represented in the A/O. Hint.
Funny how being clueless,do no favors in a critique..............(hint)

I agree smoke. The only rifles that have been very accurate for me are
Sako
Tikka
Savage
Howa
WBY vanguard. I think you missed my point. Being, any rifle maker turns out lemons sometimes. I've never had a problem getting a Winchester to shoot. Every factory Model 70 I've owned has shot at least MOA. The .308 was an honest half minute rifle with just bedding and a trigger job. The one that had to go back was a .270 That shot well under an inch with factory ammo. Even with a magnum bolt face. With matching serial #.

I think I know why the newer ones shoot good. Their is at least one Model 70 mechanic working there from the old New Haven plant.

You are correct, I was mistaken It was 2004-2005. One mistake does not make one a liar, Either way both of the 270 WSM's were purchased when they were first introduced. I was looking for a super lightweight rifle. Topped it with ultraweight talleys and compact leupold 3x9.

That is the troll/'tard version. He's like Barsness, he don't need no stinkin' crown neither. Where did JB say that? Fun is fun, but stepping over the line isn't Kosher. I feel fortunate to have JB and others posting on this site. I learn a lot from them. There is no way I could experience near what JB has experienced. If I started now, I wouldn't have enough time left. So, I learn from guys like him. Scenarshooter (Pat) is the real deal, too. But, he reportedly got tired of the Fire BS and withdrew. The ones that were always taking shots at him couldn't pack his jock and aren't sources of info worth repeating. The Fire is like eating chicken wings, you swallow the meat and spit out the bones. Sometimes it seems like a lot of bones for the meat, but that's OK. Every time we lose a poster like Pat, we all lose, the Fire loses. So, I don't have much patience with trolls and agitators who love to harp and snipe, always challenging anyone with expertise on any topic. They just gotta be the alpha dog, no matter what. Stick occasionally drops some real pearls and I have learned from him. Wish I knew half what he knows about turrets and reticles, photography and fishing. He likes to fight and jest, takes to task those he things are overreaching. I can live with that, his style notwithstanding. IMHO, DF

I agree and very nice to deal with on sales in the classifieds also. Never an issue after many purchases.

FWIW, the only Kimber issue I believe that ever had any validity was a problem with 7mm barrels. This didn't come from internet rumors....this came from a face to face meeting with the Kimber guys. They even stopped production for a period of time.
I enjoy handguns and I really like shotguns,...but I love rifles!

I'll feign my "surprise",that The Lying Clueless Phuqq dropped yet another ball,but was "close". Laughing!................

I know what I have owned. Good enough for me. Whether one wants to believe it I really do not care.
