I have always admired the Model 70 XTR appearance. Yes, I realize it is not the classic stock that most people want, but I still have always liked it.
Though vilified extensively, the push feed action on the XTR was apparently a good one. And, oddly, a local highly-respected gunsmith recently told me that the benchrest shooters for whom he builds rifles all seek the push feed actions from the 70s through the 90s that Winchester produced.
Out of curiosity, I want to hear from those of you who have or have had the XTRs. What are their good points and bad points?
