You gotta know that I would appreciate them. How many are in the .300 H&H for jump shooting fawns? Good stuff right there.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I have nothing clever to put here.

years ago my boss at the time sent me to fix some thing on a house for a long time customer. had to go in the attic to fix a fan and had to go though the master bedroom to get up there. home owner was sick and in the bed, i opend the door and started hearing angels singing. was rifle racks lined up all over the bedroom and was pre64 model 70's everywhere the eyes looked. pushed my eyes back in my head and went on up to start working and had to move some model 70 boxes out of the to get to the fan, even some of those boxes had rifles in em. the man owned over 300 model 70' and most were supergrades!!!!! just had to ask him about them and that started an hour long tour of his collection. think his dad had started the collection he had spent most of his life working on it and making it bigger and better. not long ago i was wondering how his kids handled it after he was gone

It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.

Rob, did they make a M70 in 35 Whelen?
Zim Definitely not in a pre-64 but I don’t believe I have seen one in a post 64 either.
