I’m a youngin and just got out on my own feet, I’ve found my holy grail shooter gun, New Haven made model 70 heavy varmint in .308, my dad has one that was a work rifle in a early McMillan stock that’s an absolute tac driver. I didn’t need to buy this gun financially but I’m happy I did. I can make more money. I don’t know how long it’ll be until I find this gun on the market again. Cant wait to get home on leave and pick it up.

Hi Lmims-
Congrats on acquiring what I’m guessing is the first Winchester you’ve bought for yourself? Be careful, they are addictive… 
Most of the Winchester “expertise” that hangs around this forum is into pre-64 (or pre-WWII or “antique” Winchesters, etc.), but there are a few, especially handloaders like Chuck and TxGunNut, who’ve regaled up with their tales of getting M70s to shoot their best. So feel free to post a range report on your new “old” rifle. Maybe a Father-Son shoot off?
Best,
Lou
