That gun has been for sale for quite a while. I ran accross it a few months ago when I was looking for a big bore. ****************************** There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor polite, nor popular -- but one must ask, "Is it right?"

 Only thing I can see to be used is the action. That barrel has NO taper. I'm not big enough to carry it around.As usual just my $.02 Paul K | |||

It's a copy of some phony "collector" Winchester model 70s that were built as .458 target guns, complete with target aperture sights. I thought they were ugly, useless, pointless, phony "collector" pieces that were deliberately built to be unique (and unusable). You can probably gather that I don't think much of the idea. analog_peninsula analog_peninsula ----------------------- It takes character to withstand the rigors of indolence. | |||

Well after " ringing" quite a few 1/2 size Rams at 200m with my 6mm RLG . I thought about a nice 454 casull bolt action. Rem pistol too. However, the 458 win mag bench gun is a real loser idea although at 100yrds or so I'll bet its a one holer!!-Rob -Rob Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers to do incredibly stupid things- AH (1941)- Harry Reid (aka Smeagle) 2012 Nothing Up my sleeves but never without a plan and never ever without a surprise! | |||

Guess that would go under the line of, you might be a redneck if... I think it's too generous to say the stock needs refinishing, it was never finished in the first place! __________________________________________________ The AR series of rounds, ridding the world of 7mm rem mags, one gun at a time. | |||

the M-70 was fine, this is too much, do you need a recoilbreak when the rifle weighs that much? | |||
