[QUOTE="Urban_Hunter, post: 4543064, member: 12353"] Plenty of people shoot Winchester, especially the model 70. The rifle, much like the marlin's, evolved many times over the years, and since the 60's most of the evolutions involved cutting costs to compete with the 700. The end product is much like the end product of the 700, the best ones are the older ones. The $300 academy and wal-Mart models show almost no similarity to the models from previous decades, and unless you spend the $$$ for one from the custom or classic shop you are not getting a "real" model 70, and most will argue that a "real" one hasn't been in production for as long as I've been alive or better.
