[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1242895, member: 30902"] Don't forget the Sharp Shooters either! To the OP, I bought one of the EW's and it's a decent 300-400yd gun but that's about it. The barrel contour is rather light so it heats up awfully fast not to mention crappy harmonics. I absolutely love the M70 action and similar actions. You might want to look at the Remington 5R in .300wm or the Ruger Hawkeye M77 FTW in the same caliber. I have both in .260 Rem and love them. If you want to stay with the M70 footprint take a look at the M1999 actions. [url=http://montanarifleco.com/?page_id=10]Montana Rifle Company » ACTIONS[/url] They also build a very nice rifle and having one built on their action I can tell you it will probably be worth the extra dollars to get one.
