[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 817802, member: 12995"] I was more-or-less hitting on the fact of less moving parts in the receiver for ease of alignment and less room for error... I'm just voicing my opinion, these are by no means facts, being that I'm not a gunsmith. Just to me, the fact that it's a simpler design than the M70 (Mouser K98 style action) with less moving parts I would naturally assume it would be easier to accurize? Like I said, I'm just posting my opinions, I'm not trying to step on any toes. I had a Howa 1500 once, and it didn't impress me much. It was a .223 bolt gun. I have never been a huge fan of the Winchester M70 rifles for some reason....I really don't know why? I have never had any issue with one, I just prefer the 700 action. It's partly the same reason why I don't do anything with my old Ruger M77 II tang-safety models, I am just not a huge fan of the Mouser 98 style action, so I leave them alone and they collect dust in the safe. I do take my 77 7Mag out to hunt every now and then when I know I'll be walking alot and want a lightweight rifle to tote. I will never talk bad about any action, because they all have the potential for extreme accuracy, but everyone has their favorites. [/QUOTE]
