I've got a few Model 70's. All Pre'64's. I also have a 1949 action and an Edge handle at the 'smiths waiting to become a 35 Whelen. 1960 action with 24" Shilen in 308 Norma Mag in a McMillan Supergrade stock with 3.5-10X Leupold.
1959 Fwt in 30-06 with 2.5-8X Leupold
1963 Fwt in 308, just picked it up lately, haven't fired it.
1958 Fwt in 243, it's been in the house for two or three days, needs the stock redone. Metal is very nice.
