Just snagged a M70 Ranger Youth .223 off GB today. I figure it's a 1:12 but am not sure, I read online it could possibly be a 1:9. It looked like a neat little rifle to play with and you don't find the .223 M70's everyday.

1 in 12

That's what I thought, thanks. Should be a fun little rifle with the slow twist anyway. Here are some pictures from Gunbroker, looks like it's in pretty decent shape.

My son killed his first two whitetail with that exact rifle at 8 years old. It is 1 in 12, and shoots the 60 grain Partition just fine. Nice purchase!
