I bought myself a new model 70 featherweight earlier this year. I read somewhere that FNH and Winchester together were making model 70s that surpassed those of the past because of CNC work and very tight tolerances. I have tried several handloads with h4831 and h4831sc using nosler ballistic tips and hornady sst bullets both in 130 grains. The largest group I have gotten so far has been about 1 1/2 inches at 100 yards. The smallest was three shots making one hole bigger than the 270 bullet diameter. I couldn't really measure it but you can take my word for it that it was really small. I guess the article I read about them must have been true. Have any of you out there had similar experiences with them. I called Winchester and found out the rifle was made in 2013.
