[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 681551, member: 10291"] I own and have worked with, and like both rifles. Either one would make a good long range shooter. I have an Interarms Whitworth in 375 H&H that i have owned for over 25 years. Having used it in Africa a few times, it's very accurate and been completely reliable. Also had a 300WM and a 7mm, also good shooters. While I would lean towards the basic design of the Model 70 because of easier bedding, and the greater number of stock, and component options available, I would prefer the longer action, 7mmMag over the short action Model 70 for long range work. I would consider though rebarreling the Model 70 to a faster twist, 270WSM to handle the heavier VLD bullets like the 165Matrix. [/QUOTE]
