I just weighed the trigger pulls on some old M70's that I have had for a long time.
My M70 'varmint' rifle was a 243 that I bought new in 1957. Its s/n is 39x,xxx. I used that rifle for match shooting and of course pests. I did change the spring in it trigger. Its pull weight is 2.0 lbs. It tests safe. It now has a 220 Swift M70 barrel on it.
Others: 264 3# 8oz., 300 H&H 3# 8oz., 308 4# 2oz., 358 3# 3oz.
All these rifles test safe.
