    My Win Model70 (7mag) by Phoenix Custom Rifles

    It's either standard pushfeed or their CRPF, no pictures of boltface, but judging by the before picture it could be in the CRPF era. Just got my new Model 70 that will turn into something real similar to madppcs's that is a sweet looking rig. Too bad everything's so far out to order.

    Any one interested in a usmc M-70 Sniper Rifle

    Auction site is where it'll be and it won't be listed on there until Monday.

    New to LR

    Mostly targets, may see use hunting in the desert against deer and the elusive antelope. I'd be more used to the longer shots than with my 300 WM (don't want to burn my barrel out practicing a lot until my checkbooks deeper).

    Gunsmithing WY/ID/MT Hydro-dipping

    Looking for an outfit that hydro dip paints rifle stocks, and has a good reputation in the northern part of the Rockies. The closer to Western WY the better. Also preferably a company a fellow forum member has had do work and can vouch for their quality and customer service. Thanks in advance.

    I would do shameful, unforgivable things to raise the money that that gun will probably go for.

    Dry fire practice

    You should be fine unless your practicing on a rimfire.

    1:10 vs 1:12 for 30-06 Shooting 168, 175 SMK's

    Brushbuster I hope that pre 64 of yours is pretty well worn down. I wouldn't think of taking my grandpas 70 and tacticalizing it. That being said I know that I'll have a DBM setup on mine, supposedly the bottom of the receiver needs a bit of fitting. I would imagine one of the outfits making...

    That's what my hunting rifle is. Getting all the parts gathered up to build a long range tacticool Model 70 in 30-06. Big Winchester fan here.

    1:10 vs 1:12 for 30-06 Shooting 168, 175 SMK's

    That's basically what I'm after. Thinking of going Douglas or Hart for a barrel manufacturer. I don't see the straight shank for 4" then the taper like you've described above. If I just call em up will they know what I'm talking about? If not it looks like a #7 or #8 contour's going to be my...

    1:10 vs 1:12 for 30-06 Shooting 168, 175 SMK's

    Definatley going to be a tactical style rifle. Plan to have it sitting in a McMillan A4 or A5. Basically what I'm after is a 1000 yard gun. May be tempted to go out farther than that eventually, but I'm new to the long range game, so I know that I've got a lot to lean and figure out just to get...

    1:10 vs 1:12 for 30-06 Shooting 168, 175 SMK's

    Building my 1st precision bolt rifle. Will be a Model 70 chambered in 30-06. Plan to shoot mostly 168, and 175 gr SMK's, possibly going up to their 190's (I've heard good things). Would I be better off to go with a 1:10 barrel twist rate or a 1:12. I highly dbout I'll do Anything over 200 gr...

    What about a Winchester 70 ?

    I'll be building my first 'sniper' rifle out of a Win Model 70 action here soon. Will probably be a few months but I'll be sure and put some pictures up. Everything I've got planned she'll be a sweet piece when it's all done.

    How much recoil for a 300 WM

    My main hunting rifle's a Winchester Model 70 Alaskan in .300 Win Mag, the new FN 2012 vintage. Love the rifle. Suits me fine just as I got it. Haven't weighed it but with the scope (Redfield 4-12) and bipod (Harris) I'd say it all together is around 9-9.5 lbs. Recoil from it doesn't bother me...

    McMillan A4 or A5 for my Win Model 70

    What caliber are you running? Like I said I'll be using the 30-06 and would like to get the CDI/AICS Magazines, from what I understand I need to mess with the .300 Win Mag style magazines for 30-06 use.

    McMillan A4 or A5 for my Win Model 70

    Starting to put in orders for all my bits and pieces, I'll be using a Model 70 action to be chambered in the 30-06 Gov't. Probably going to get a Schneider barrel on order. I'm at a bit of a indecision point when it comes to my stock choices. I know I'd like a McMillan, but I'm not sure if I...

    Rifle Scopes scope for deer < than 500 yds

    I have a Redfield 4-12 on my Model 70 in .300 Win Mag and love it, this is pretty much what I use it for, moreso Elk than Deer though.
