There is a late 60s M70 in 308 WIN for sale in my area and its a pretty nice rifle, it has a large older Weaver scope on it. If it was a 222 I would snatch it up.
Funny you said that.. I was digging in one of my safes for a certain rifle and came across a M70 PF compact.. When I took it out to get at another one further back I noted it was a .222 Rem.. I do NOT remember owning that one at ALL...
It's hell to get old..
