[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 913386, member: 11717"] Welcome to LRH Coleman. I think the best answer is the best rifle will be the one that shoots the best and shoots consistently the farthest... when it comes to long range. I personally like the M70 action, especially the pre 64. I heard the post 64's has some issues but not all that familiar with them. The current model M70 is a good action. The aluminum bedded Houge stock is a good stock as well. Not the best, but good. If you handload, try working up a good load in each rifle and see which shoots the best and most consistent. if you don't handload, try a few boxes of different factory ammo and see if one is better than the other. If you want to get into serious LR shooting, handloading is pretty much required. Cheers [/QUOTE]
