buy it...dont hesitate...just buy it...feed it reloads not overly hot and be a happy man...I will NEVER sell mine,its killed a whole heap of animals for me with never an issue. work the bolt for some time to smooth out any wee rough spots,rebed it as it will be pressure point bedded and touch at front of stock. mine will poke nearly every 45-60 grn load Ive tried into similar poi and stay inside an inch all day long.
Just bought one, will report back once I've given it a go. After an accuracy check, it's off to get threaded for the ODL can I have left over from the good old days
Going to get it re crowned while it's threaded?Quote:

Fixed the tiny bolt handle with epoxy and fibreglass.
The only thing that could be better is with a scope fat fingers find the internal mag a bit fiddly but it does hold 6.
The guy who threaded it said he had never encountered steel as hard before in a barrel.
I've had one for a few years now. Really like it, critters not so much. I like the small bolt handle. I like the small everything including group size.
Thinking about getting a Zastava M70 in 270.
Anyone have experience?
Is it similar to a M85?
Thanks
I have one in 7mmRM. Fairly similar. Would not hesitate to buy another one.Quote:
