I got a Winchester Model 70 in .223 WSSM last year. Rifle, Leupold scope bases, and a box of ammo for $350 out the door. It seemed too good to pass up, and I had dreams of swapping the barrel and making something cool out of it. Unfortunately, with the smaller than normal action length on these 70's in wssm, I cant find a bolt with a non-magnum face. So it looks like I'm stuck with a wssm. But it's not a bad rifle, lightweight, low recoil. I think it will make a good coyote gun or youth deer rifle, and when I'm talking with guys about guns I can claim to have the fastest cartridge in the room.
