The times when I've actually needed better than 2 MOA accuracy for hunting big game has actually been quite small, even though it has been no trouble to get most every Winchester M70 I've shot well below that. But the number of times the M70 rifle has been a better choice than most M700s I've shot has been plenty. Either will work, accuracy isn't the whole story, or even close to the majority issue - and the 700 doesn't have a corner on it anyway, but I still like the simplicity of the M70 - it relates well to the principle of KISS.
