That there is a beautiful rifle stock.

Your floor, however, needs a date with Birgit Hummel and her friends Berta Edger, Trowe L. Filler, Clarke Buffer, and Poly U. Rethane.

Very nice! I have a model 70 with a scope just like that! Unfortunatly, my stock was broken by a tree limb while the rifle was in my saddle scabard on an elk hunt a few years ago. Would you sell that stock? ***wink,wink***;);)
 
I always liked the way the blued steel finish on a Weaver scope looked on a rifle with a nice blue job. A "made for each other" pairing.
 
The wood is awesome....I would rather have an all steel mount and rings....Maybe Redfield or Leupold 3x9 on top....

That being said..my dads old pre 64 had a weaver scope and Beuhler mount and rings....
 
Featherweight rifle, Fiddleback wood - What's not to like ?

Thanks for posting it - What's the chambering ?

The appear to be all steel vintage Weaver clamshells.

The bases are current production, probably aluminum

.270

The stock shows usage in the field, but that just encourages me to shoot it more:)

Nope....not all steel....

I will say again..awesome wood....very nice FW in a classic caliber....

That is the same type sling my dad used on his model 70....

Now why can't they make guns that look like that today? It appeals to my minimalist proclivity. I'm after a 722 for the same reasons.
