[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 2956832, member: 109917"] I don't remember when this article was released, I remember reading it in one of the rags, but all I heard from my cousin was 270 yada yada yada. He owned 2 rifles, a 1965 Winchester Model 70 270 Winchester and a 9422M that I now have after he passed. I have the sister to the 270, a 1965 Winchester Model 70 30'06, both bought at Leonard Brothers in downtown Fort Worth. If any of y'all remember the trolley/subway in downtown Fort Worth, that was originally Leonard Brother's. My uncle, his dad bought all 5 of the nephews Model 70s the year they were born. I got the only 30'06 because my cousin was born a few weeks before me and they only had two Model 70s on the rack. No regrets from me.
