Drool. Pics made my evening. How do you find it compares to the Supergrade in fit and finish?

Now there's an heirloom piece. Congrats!

Are you going to shoot it ? With winchester moving production to Portugal in the new year, the USA rollstamped gun might appreciate in the future.

Could you provide some more info on this? It's the first I've heard of it.

Thanks!

I've also just checked my inventory in my gun room and it would seem that at this moment I don't have a bolt action 30-06 ...

You must remedy this injustice post haste.

You bet I'm gonna shoot it, and probably hunt with it. But no mods to this one except to maybe polish and jewel the extractor on both of them. This is one of the nicest rifles I've ever owned I think I'll just enjoy it and not bubba this one.

Just tell yourself that it's an investment. Thats what i would do.

"We have made the decision to have the Model 70's assembled in Portugal starting in 2013. This is totally so that we can better meet our demand for this product so that we can fill more orders to our dealers. This is no way a reflection on the quailty. There is nothing wrong with the quality we are doing this to provide more deliveries. The gun will still be made in the USA only now just assembled in Portugal."


This is the quote from their facebook page dec9.

Great rifle btw. Very nice indeed.

 

[Shooter_01]

Thanks, kman300.

I don't have to justify it to myself at all, just the fact I WANT it is all the reason I need to buy a new gun. My pre 64 lever collection is an investment, this one is just shiny and pretty.

Sorry to hear production is moving to Portugal. Darn, this means I'm going to have to find a way to get one ASAP.

Same here. Christmas bonus needs to hurry up lol

Portugal eh. Makes me glad I just bought an M70 Alaskan. For all you Saskie M70 fans out there, S'toon Wholsale has probably one of the only NIB M70 Safari Deluxes in stock in the country. It's chambered in .375 H&H.

Nice looking gun....will you take it with you for the baboon cull?

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Again, congrats c-fbmi. It's a beauty.

You'll have to put up a range report after you shoot. It is one of the nicer baboon guns a guys likely to come across.
