I've wanted to add a Pre-64 Model 70 to my collection for a while now but am not a knowledgeable collector of the rifles.
I'm looking at a model 70 built in 1942 and chambered in 300H&H. It's been drilled and tapped for a scope mount but looks to otherwise be all original. I'd rate the rifle between 90-95 percent condition, worn bluing on bolt nob and especially on the floor plate but otherwise strong, no cracks in the stock and nice factory checkering but numerous small scratches and dent in the wood from handling. What would you more knowledgeable fans and collectors consider to be a fair price range?
