Win M70 Compact FW

Have never handled the M70 but the FW version has piqued my interest a time or two.


A whole lot less ought 6 proponents than I had imagined when I started the thread


And to the poster that asked why I wanted to upgrade from the Savage Axis...

It's a fine gun for the money, and it's currently 4 for 4 on whitetails and groups well at the range (getting 1-1.25" groups @ 100 yds), but I really hate the stock on it as it's wayyyy too flexible, and I really don't want to just upgrade the stock. I want a stainless barrel, and I want something that's nice to look at.


Here's where I'm leaning...

Remington 700 LSS
