700 BDL/M70 featherweight/ Ruger No. 1

[Texan1894]

Have all 3 of the above mentiones rifles. My Win pre 70 in 243 still shoots solid to this day. Have a few of the Ruger # 1 one in 257 and one in 06 and the Rem 700 in 223 and one in 17 Rem and one in 204 Ruger all are shooters had a smith touch them up a little. For me it would depend on what I was using it for and what game . My 25-06 have two , one is a custom 2506AI which Parker did with a mauser supreme action and both have 26 in tubes and love them both with the Nosler 115 gr silvertips-BT and the Partitions all shoot well for me. My one has a thumb hole stock which is my favorite but both shoot just a well. It's a tough choice too make so good luck.

If you'd ever be interested in moving one of the No. 1's please let me know. I love the history on the old M70's as well.
