Thanks, Gunner.

I like the way the blue Oberndorf style Williams bottom metal looks on the SS M-70. I like the larger trigger guard and the way the trigger is positioned near the rear of the trigger guard. I'm even getting used to the mixed blue and stainless look.

I have NECG SS hex head action screws back ordered at Brownells. I think they'll look good, too.

Can't wait to get the barrel fitted and pop a few caps.

I've shot a Browning Safari .458 Mag. and a Merkel .500 NE. Both had a good push, but not teeth rattling. I hope this one performs along those lines.
