Way back when I first got that m70 it had weaver bases on it. Regardless of all the people who look down their nose at them they work fine and the system is repeatable. I had at the time a old Burris full field straight 6x, old long tube model with short eye relief paid 60 for it. Put it on with med. height weaver rings. Had all of 310 dollars in it some of the best money I.ever spent. Shot it on everything and anything just didn't know that there might be a better rig for p dogs to deer. Used some imr 4831 and h4831 in it until I scored a pile of h870 surplus ,sure made the 25-06 sing. I suppose I could owe up to the fact that I have many nicer guns but sure don't have many that ever did any better in the field....mb
