He does make interesting and informative videos. I would have kept the Model 70.

I think I would have kept the 03-A3. He said he didn't like the peep sight but they have always worked good for me. Especially now that my eyes are older.

i got a soft spot for sako too. just never liked that manlicher style stock.

I've always favored bolts over all other others for 2 reasons... Accuracy, and most important dependability.

Hard to choose. I'm a 30 caliber guy but there are a lot of fine rifles on that table. I don't collect guns so I usually only have what I want or think that I need... So trying to choose what to remove from my own "arsenal" would be a painful decision.

I can't argue with his logic. I think oftentimes a rifle's fit isn't prioritized enough when choosing. He obviously prioritized it, and that's the takeaway. He's a better shot than me, for sure. I'll admit that I'm partial to the model 70 and 30/06, though.
