[QUOTE="Cascade_Sherpa, post: 807367, member: 16421"] Its hard to argue with the points above in favor of the model 70.....I grew up hunting with post 64 model 70's and killed plenty of small blacktails and roosevelts. My dad was a loyal winchester guy and still is. I guess in the end it comes down to what company is still going to stand behind its product for years to come. Model 70 has all of the aftermarket upgrades available. I had no idea that TC discontinued the Icon, that is too bad cause they are/were a pretty nice little rifle. I have one in .243 and it is a tackdriver with a nice trigger, decent DBM, integral picatinny scope base and other nice features. All things being equal I would actually rather have an Icon vs. the model 70. [/QUOTE]
