I am a huge fan of Winchester 70's, just not the stainless lefties.



you like '70's, but you really don't?
you wonder why .300 mags are heavy? that's Winchesters fault?
yet you like RH '70's?


Not sure why you posted what you did.
I owned a bunch of lefty 70's. Liked all of them except the stainless versions.
You can try to cherry pick my words all you like but I thought the SS lefty 70 in 300 Win mag was simply to heavy compared to other 300's I had owned. At one time I remembered what it weighed but forgot that long ago. I do remembering hollowing out the stock in the forearm and under the recoil pad in an attempt to remove some weight.
RH 70's? The only one I ever shot is the one my wife owns (compact in 7mm/08) and it is a very nice rifle, shoots great.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
