[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1120773, member: 30902"] The three position safety of the Model 70 and M 77 to me is one of the most important and most preferred features. If it feels a bit rough at first that's no bit deal at all, you just have to wear the knew off of it. A little range time or a little lapping compound will take care of that. As for loud, no I don't find that to be an issue at all. I would be worried bout any safety that doesn't have an audible click to it when you change position. I currently own 5 Rem 700's, 6 Win M70's, 1Ruger M77, and one Montanna M1999 along with one CZ and have owned quite a few more of each of those over the years and I'll take the CRF action with the three position safety all day, every day, and twice on Sundays over the push feed action 2 position safety. I started off in life shooting Remingtons and it took a bit of getting used to the 3 position safety when I shot my first Pre 64 M 70 but I'm definitely hooked on them for life. [/QUOTE]
