[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2423738, member: 30902"] No doubt. I've seen some incredible customs built though on those pre war actions. Unfortunately steel was not what it is today in that era which is why the .264 quickly got the "barrel burner" reputation and others followed. You can work miracles with a shot out pre war M70 just by having a quality smith replace the barrel. I have one custom .375 Ruger built on a pre war action and they even kept with the original taper and sight ring. Even with the heavy recoil it's probably my favorite rifle to hunt with out to 400yds. [/QUOTE]
