[QUOTE="Clark, post: 249106, member: 6600"] I like the M70 safeties. I heard of a man stationed in Iraq who's daughter wanted a rifle, so I spent two months and built her a 243 on a Mauser auction. I sent emails with pics every night, it kept me away from the TV at night in May and June 2007. I had a great time, but I slit sawed and milled and drilled and ground until I got a $20 Chapman M70 type safety to fit. Never more, it is $30 Wisner M70 type safeties for me from now on. That extra $10 will mean allot more TV time for me. I like VZ24s. BIG5 had 1903 and 1938 Turks on sale often enough in 1999, 2000, 2001 for $50 + $4 WA state sales tax = $54 out the door. I bought allot of those. Then BIG5 in 2001 and 2002 had VZ24s on sale for $70 + $6 WA state sales tax = $76 out the door. I bought allot of those. Now 2008 Century sometimes has VZ24s on sale for $115 + shipping + FFL. I have not bought any yet. I killed 3 deer this year with 130 gr 270 at 400, 400, and 500 yards with Nosler Ballistic tip bullets. Next year I want to use the 257RAI. It is every bit as flat shooting, and might make a little less meat damage. [/QUOTE]
