Has anyone actually seen a M-70 chambered in .223 Remington with a CRF action.

All the ones I've seen are PF and damn few of them.

Vapo, it's never been made. Pity. Guess they're concentrating on the soon to be obsolete WSSM's. If they'd build a SS 223 Fwt I'd buy one (as long as they got the twist right). Most M70 223's are set up for heavy bullets with too tight a twist (1-9" if I recall).

They've made them, I believe for two years...if you look on the USRAC website, they even list parts for them.

I was charged by a wounded mourning dove the other day. Thank God for my SKB double with CRF 3" gun.

It took both barrels to turn it and because it's faster than an O/U I shot it twice more as it was trying to escape. I managed to find a fluff of feathers where it once stood it's ground with defiance.
