New Hunting Rig Arrived Today :)

[tomjones]

A very lightly used FN Winchester Model 70 Feather Weight in .30-06.
I've mounted a Zeiss 3x9x40.

I've got a few boxes of Hornady 165grain SST's to sight it in this weekend. I can't wait.

Just thought I'd share some pictures. I'm really in love with this package

Sweet looking rifle.

Nice rifle! I thought many times about picking that up when I seen it on the EE. I would have had a matching set lol. Mine wears the same scope too. I really like that scope. For hornady 165gr sst mine shoots 58gr H4350 real nice. 57gr of that powder is pretty good as well.

Sweet!

I thought it was steal when I came across it! Perfect timing to. In my area these things are sold out almost everywhere and this one has the nicest Walnut I've seen on a M70 almost Super Grade level. Needless to say, I'm one happy customer.
Thanks for the info regarding load, I'll keep it in mind.

Very nice.

I had it zeroed in this week and I must say she is a beautiful gun. Handles and shoots like a dream. I was getting sub MOA with Hornady 168gr through a Zeiss 3x9. I can't ask for much better than that.
My favorite thing just might be out shooting my Tikka buddies with the classic Riflemans Rifle. It never gets old.

Congrats, it's always fun and exciting to purchase a new rifle.
