I'm thinking of buying a new rifle...I've been looking at Winchester Model 70 Sporter in .25-06 to be used primarily for deer hunting. When I do a search of Model 70's it seems the information I get mostly are about the pre-64 Model 70. What I've learned so far is that Winchester is currently owned by FN Herstal and are manufacturer in South Carolina. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the current brand of Winchester manufactured in SC and what opinions you have about them.
I looked at getting one a while back. Pre 64's are the standard by which most look at the Model 70, but the ones being made today have picked up the quality and I hear very good things. Still considering selling off my .300 BAR to finance one...
