Thread: Model 70 300 win mag thoughts

Just found a Model 70 syn/blued in 300 mag 24" barrel mint cond for $999. Seems like a nice cheap long range rig.
Should i buy it?

Well i couldn't resist and i bought it, geuss i'll find out first hand what its gunna be like. Already own one in 308 and love it

Would be interested to know what you think of the recoil with the synthetic stock. I had a Weatherby in .300 winchester mag with wood stock, had to admit it did boot like a mule. Sold it after a while as it got to the point I got apprehensive when pulling the trigger which aint good.

Get a muzzle brake

Yes im already thinking of a brake and i haven't even got it yet! I have a nice piece of laminated gun stock blank that might be put to service too.
