Simple, really. Model 70s don't need an entire cottage industry like 700s to make them work....
From my experience, the R700 is far more accurate or can be made far more accurate. Both have “hunting” accuracy, but the R700 is more accurate. Thus they are more desirable to many people. And the push feed vs CRF is a non issue, unless you’re after dangerous game and then, how much of an issue is push feed, really?
And I like the R700 because there are more customizing options. Fire suit on.
