Picked this rifle up at Cabelas using employer issued gift cards. Didn't cost me a dime! Pumped!!!

My ex-wife sold all my hunting and shooting gear a year ago (guns, bows, camo, boots, etc) so I'm slowly trying to restock!
 
Thanks SSMG, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Lol
Leaving the house in a few hrs to do a little pig hunting!
 
Those XTR rifles were some of Winchesters best. Generally under valued and under appreciated. I bet it makes a good one for you.
 
I'm a huge M-70 fan. I have several from the pre-64s to the new FN models.

My FN M-70 is a Featherweight in 270 wn.

Now I like all Model 70s but I'm convinced the new FNs are the best Model 70s that were produced.
 
I'm a big fan of the model 70 too. Only rifles I own are 700's or 70's. I'm also not a CRF fanatic as it doesn't matter to me as long as it feeds.

My newest model 70 is a 2013 Featherweight stainless in .243. Haven't shot it much at all yet as most of my hunting during spring and summer is groundhog.

I also own a 70 Stealth in .308 Win. Heavy rifle but darn can it shoot. I purchased this one to try long range shooting.

Never owned a bad 70 yet and I've owned them from the 80's, 90's and later.
