Model 70 Ultimate Shadow 300WSM

[therealdoublel]

Got this rifle 6 or 7 years ago and have wanted to either put a Houge Overmold stock or wood stock on it ever since. Is there any diffrence with the Ultimate Shadow style of Model 70?

Also how easy is it to adjust the trigger. Seems straight foreward but I have never adjusted one before.


Thanks.

i think the only difference is the stock. If you look here: http://www.gunsandammomag.com/cs/Satellite/IMO_GA/Gun_C/Winchester+Model+70+Ultimate+Shadow

It states in the Notes on the lower left that it is "Similar to Black Shadow but stock has raised, rubberized gripping surfaces." seen here http://www.gunsandammomag.com/cs/Satellite/IMO_GA/Gun_C/Winchester+Model+70+Black+Shadow

Now check out the MSRPs listed...and i wonder why you're about to junk something people pay up 200 bucks for?

That Ultimate Shadow stock worked very well for me in Africa for 3 weeks on my .270 WSM. Unless you get the Hogue full aluminum bed stock what you have would be better.I still use my Ultimate Shadow as my main deer rifle even though I have Brown Precision and Houge stocked 700s ect also. Thatstock is an excellent rough duty stock despite how it looks!
