Back somewhere around the Mid 2000’s I went to the LGS to buy a 270 WSM. They had one of the Model 70 Coyotes with the 2 ton log of a stock and a Model 70 Featherweight. They tried to talk me into the Featherweight. I bought the Coyote version. Talk about a case of the stupids. If I would have bought the featherweight I would probably still own it.
It did have a slick action though. Nice rifle but those original Coyotes felt like carrying around a railroad tie.

Where was the Model 70’s made then?

The new Extreme Weather SS I handled yesterday in Whittaker’s felt good to me. Some say they are clubbish feeling but it didn’t feel that way at all to me personally. And not to heavy or to light.


One of several.....

Only my Coyote was in 243 WSSM.

now that was DUMB

ya!
