I've decided the 'accumulation' in my safes isn't complete without a Model 70, the ubiquitous hunting rifle. My challenge is searching and finding a nice example of a pre-64 at a reasonable price vs. getting a brand new one. My knowledge is limited to what I've read, so here I am, asking for advice from experienced owners.
My gut tells me to look for a pre-64. However, can anyone tell me what the level of quality is like on the new productions? Caliber 30-06.
I don't want a safe queen, rather, a range toy, and taken on a deer hunt if I get the chance.
BTW, I use the term 'accumulation' cuz a collection implies a theme : )
