[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 576777, member: 24624"] If you have to ask, then you probably haven't had enough opportunity/experience to tell the difference anyway. It would be beneficial if you could find a way to shoot both before committing. The M70 is a better rifle and has significantly more potential for customization for long range hunting. You may not be planning to customize, but the sport is addictive and it's only a matter of time before you're buying more rifles and/or upgrading what you have. I have been unimpressed by the X-Bolt's that I've handled and shot. Nonetheless, they can be effective and they do have a loyal following as well. Welcome aboard and best of luck!! -- richard [/QUOTE]
