My old Model 70 is a shooter! When developing loads for a Hornady 270 SP, using WW760, the groups got smaller with each step-up in charge. After 20 rounds, I had to drive home, load 20 and return to range. With daylight fading, I was hurrying through the 5 shot groups.....4 close together and open the group with the 5th. On the 8th group of the day (40 rounds), with the highest powder charge, and the sun just below the horizon......the first 4 rounds went under 1/2” with the 5th in a different orbit! I wasn’t too concerned about the 5th.....it only holds 4 fully loaded! 😉 memtb


You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
