Well, it looks like a great shooter and I'd be shickled titless with it.

I once had a 700 Classic in .223, the Y2K issue, and it shot like that. Gorgeous rifle. One day it wouldn't shoot like that anymore and I couldn't figure out why. It went down the road and there was a procession of .223s that came and went. Cost me plenty, too. It finally dawned on me that I had screwed with my sizing die (I think it had something to do with an AR15 or two) and that was why my accuracy had gone to shit.

What I ended up with was a Model 70 HV, and I think it may be the most accurate rifle I've ever owned. It wasn't all for naught, but I'd sure like to have that 700 Classic back again.


Don't be the darkness.

America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.
