Model 70 Sporter Varmint .308 Win?

[Karsten]

I have searched for any mention of these rifles and haven't found a thing. Does anyone know anything about them, how many were made or anything. I think I am starting to feel like the Lone Ranger here.
I know at least one existed as it resides with me

Thanks

Karsten
