It's an easy one to give. The M70's CRF feature also works better than the Ruger M77 Mk II's and Hawkeye's CRF feature. Every M77 MkII and Hawkeye I've ever had was CRF when it wanted to. Sometimes they would hold a rim, sometimes it wouldn't. Never had a CRF M70 that didn't do what it was supposed to in that regard.

But then again, Ruger bolt handles aren't time bombs, bound to fly off at any given second. So Ruger does have it's merits.

Oh, and the Ruger stocks are slimmer. If you could get a Ruger stock on a new M70, then you'd have something. If not for that pesky bolt handle.
