I have had an FNSLP for 6 months now. I have only shot it a few hundred rounds. But, it has been 100% reliable with everything I have fed it - buckshoot to cheap birdshot. I hunt duck, quail, dove, and chukar with my M1S90. I can count on one hand the number of times it has malfunctioned over...
I just bought a Winchester 70 SS Extreme in 30-06. I liked the Remington 700 too. However, I liked the Winchester more.
This gun will be a general purpose hunting rifle for coyote, hog, and deer. Someday, I plan to pick up a second rifle. Would it be a mistake to make the second rifle a...
I ended up going with the Winchester 70 SS Extreme. I liked the fact that the safety locks the bolt, I liked the free floated barrel, and I mostly like the fact that it is CRF. Remington is a very nice gun though.
I finally did it (thanks to THR). I purchased the Winchester Model 70 SS Extreme in 30-06.
I already have a black matte VX3 3.5-10x40.
I am going to order Leupold Dual Dovetail bases and low rings. What should they be - Stainless or Matte?
Which do you think is the better deer hunting rifle? Why?
1. Safety - two position vs. three position
2. CRF vs. Push feed
3. Accuracy
4. Trigger - MOA vs X Mark Pro
5. Stock
6. Workmanship, fit and finish
7. Mag release - inside trigger vs. outside trigger
8. Bolt handle...
Does anyone have a picture of how a matte scope looks on a blued bolt gun. I already have a matte scope and wanted to see how it looks on a blue gun.
Thanks.

I am really struggling with which Model 70 to purchase in 30-06. I started doing some reading on the Featherweight versions. People seem to really love this gun. Now, I am confused.
Which do you like better as a general purpose hunting gun? Why?
The specifications are remarkably...
...dovetail mounts? My scope will be a Leupold VXIII 3.5-10x40.
I should get the "gloss" finish on the scope to match the Sporter finish, right?
*I called my gunsmith and Winchester and got a "it will be close" from both of them. I want to buy the right rings and want the scope to sit as...
For the Winchester Model 70 Sporter with a Leupold 3.5-10x40, will the low Leupold rings work with the Leupold dual dovetail mounts?
I want to keep the scope as low as possible. Will there be any problems with this setup?
I have a Remington 700 Camo synthetic ADL in 30-06 that I am considering selling to help fund this purchase.
The Remington is accurate. I have no complaints there. It points and handles well. It has a good trigger. But, there are several things I don't like about my Remington that I...
How would you guys rate the wood stock that is on the Winchester Model 70 Sporter? Would it be sealed from the factory? Or, is there something I would need to do to seal it?
(you guys are talking me into wood and blue steel)
The reason for asking is that I am debating which version of the Winchester 70 to buy in 30-06.
It is the Stainless synthetic SS Extreme version or the Wood blued steel Sporter version. I actually like the Sporter better. But, I don't want a gun that changes POI if the stock gets wet and...
For a bolt action hunting gun, which do you like better? I know the advantages of stainless and synthetic stocked guns. Are there any advantages to a wood stocked blued steel gun?
I was curious about something on the "Featherweight" rifles. They seem to be the same weight as the SS Extreme rifles at 6 lbs 12 oz. I am scratching my head.
I don't want to get into the politics of the Remington trigger debate. I just want to know how to reliably find out if my 2001 model 700 ADL has the problem that everyone is talking about.
Can some one list the tests to try?
P.S. So far, I have tried the following: with an empty gun...
I am looking at getting a Winchester 70 in 30-06. I like the Featherweight and SS Extreme models. I am torn between the two. If you own a SS Extreme - how do like it? Is it accurate? Any problems?
