70 all day long for me. A few easy mods to the 70 are my way to roll. I tried to love the Tikka and still have a couple, but the 70's work better for me. I'd bet a dollar their 6.5 CM in an EW would be pretty decent if you like the stock.

I don't love the FN trigger's, but they aren't a huge mountain to fix up either. Their 7-08 in the same EW would be a heckuva good rifle. Shoot the factory barrel for awhile and change it out to something more useful. Might not be a bad set up either.
